  • Captain Robert Niles and the Connecticut State Navy

    Sheldon S CohenARTICLEThe New England Quarterly2016

    Captain Robert Niles (1734–1818) commanded the schooner, Spy, in the Connecticut state navy during the American Revolution. He gathered intelligence, protecting his state's coast, transported supplies, and traded for contraband in the West Indies. In 1778 Niles sailed Spy to France, delivering a copy of the American-ratified Franco-American Treaty. After the war, he continued maritime pursuits, went bankrupt, endured family tragedies, yet remaine…

    And there came unto him Pharisees, trying him, and saying, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? And He answered and said, Have ye not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh? So that they are no more two but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, le…

    Sheldon S Cohen, Benjamin TrumbullARTICLEHistory of Education Quarterly1968References: 2

    THE INFLUENCE of higher education on the history and development of eighteenth-century Colonial America greatly exceeded the small existing institutions and the relatively few scholars which they enrolled. When the American Revolution erupted in 1775, there were but nine scattered collegiate schools within the colonies, and only two of them had been in existence for over thirty-five years. Most of these colonial colleges operated under the restri…

    Sheldon S CohenARTICLEThe William and Mary Quarterly1967

    T HE rock of orthodoxy was the most formidable fixture in the New England Puritan's spiritual landscape. Clinging to it, he could sink in sin and temptation to emerge again. On it, he could build a haven against doubt and against despair. Some sensitive men, like Cotton Mather and Benjamin Colman, held fast to it through the fiercest personal struggles and found their grip strengthened. Others were dashed to pieces. And others, like Jeremiah Dumm…

  • The Parnassus Articles

    Sheldon S CohenARTICLEHistory of Education Quarterly1965

    The American Revolution brought with it years of hardship for higher education in the new nation. Almost from the outset of hostilities the small colonial colleges suffered in one form or another from the conflict. At Harvard College, dormitories were converted into barracks during Washington's seige of Boston. Princeton's Nassau Hall was damaged in a notable skirmish, and the building was later used as a hospital for the Continental Army. In Vir…
