Massachusetts has a long list of accomplishments and absolutely no intention of letting anyone forget them.
Over the last four centuries, the Commonwealth has helped launch revolutions, shape public education, challenge slavery, build world-class universities, pioneer scientific breakthroughs, and produce enough influential politicians to keep historians employed indefinitely. It has also hanged witches, excluded immigrants, exploited workers, priced ordinary people out of housing, and spent an extraordinary amount of time congratulating itself.
In The Republic of Being Right: An Irreverent History of Massachusetts, Jordan Blake Carter tells the story of America's most self-assured state with humor, insight, and an appreciation for both its achievements and its flaws.
From Indigenous New England and Puritan settlements to Boston's revolutionary fervor, the rise of industrial capitalism, the Kennedy era, and the modern biotech boom, this is a lively history of a place that has always believed ideas matter, institutions matter, and that it probably knows better than everyone else.
Maddeningly, it has often been right.
