Description

Bradford's History of Plimoth Plantation is a historical account of the Pilgrims' journey to America and their settlement in the New World. The book is based on the original manuscript written by William Bradford, one of the leaders of the Pilgrims and the governor of the Plymouth Colony. The manuscript was written between 1630 and 1651 and provides a detailed account of the Pilgrims' voyage on the Mayflower, their struggles to establish a colony in the harsh New England environment, and their interactions with the native Wampanoag tribe, including the famous Thanksgiving feast. The book is a primary source for understanding the early years of the Plymouth Colony and the experiences of the Pilgrims, and it provides a valuable insight into the history of America. This edition of the book includes an introduction and notes by Harold Paget, which provide historical context and explain some of the archaic language used by Bradford.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
