The long history of indoor and outdoor plumbing is fascinating. The first water system on the continent was pioneered during the late 1600s in Boston, followed by the creation of a piping system for New York City firefighters. Inventor, plumber, and businessman Thomas Crapper improved the toilette system with his many plumbing innovations championing the need for improved sanitation throughout Europe and North America. Let’s learn more with the 15-Minute History podcast.

Before the group of Puritan colonists left England for the New World in 1630, John Winthrop (1588-1649) delivered an inspirational final message filled with the hope for what America could become. The sermon is titled, ‘The Model Of Christian Charity,’ but is famous for the line, "City on a Hill." This line would go on to become popular in political discussions of the United States of America, however, in this sermon, it meant so much more than that. E287.

John Winthrop (1588-1649) was an English Puritan lawyer and one of the leading figures in founding the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the second major settlement in New England following Plymouth Colony. Winthrop delivered a sermon before he led the first large wave of colonists across the Atlantic ocean from England in 1630. The sermon is famous largely for its use of the phrase “a city on a hill,” used to describe the expectation that the Massachusetts Bay Colony would shine like an example to the world. He served as governor for 12 of the colony's first 20 years. E286.
