Pillars of Salt, Monuments of Grace: New England Crime Literature and the Origins of American Popular Culture, 1674-1860
Daniel A. Cohen
Explores a major cultural shift embodied in hundreds of early New England crime publications. Tracing the declining authority of Puritan ministers, this work probes the forgotten origins of our modern mass media's pre-occupation with crime and punishment.
