Wonderful resource for understand the Pilgrims of Plymouth,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Good Newes from New England (Paperback)
I have read William Bradford's book about Plymouth a few times, but I only recently became aware of this work. One in Six Americans can (could) trace their roots back to the Mayflower and the Pilgrims at Plymouth. This books provides another primary source for understanding the life and times of the Pilgrims.

Good News,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Good Newes from New England (Paperback)
A very nice little book about advertising people to come to the New World from a person who lived at Plimoth Colony - Edward Winslow. The book was actually written by several people.
5.0 out of 5 stars
First hand account,
This review is from: Good Newes from New England (Paperback)
This is a good read. You get a good feel for what the colonists worried most about. And Winslow isn't all flowery in his prose. He's just laying down an account of what's really going on.
