Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book commemorates the 200-year anniversary of the construction and opening of a meetinghouse in Hingham, Massachusetts in 1681. Having stood for two centuries, the building continues to be used for services today and is considered the oldest meetinghouse in the country. The author traces the history of the meetinghouse, highlighting not only its architecture but its place within the broader context of social, political, and cultural life in Hingham. The book also compiles personal recollections from the individuals who were involved or descended from those involved in the construction. Interspersed throughout are insights into the lives of the ministers, the role of clergy in early New England society, and the hardships faced by colonists during this nascent period in American history.
