Mayflower: A Story of Courage, Community, and War

Following the Pilgrims on their perilous journey from England on a battered, leaky ship, through their first bitter North American winter, to their equally bitter battle against the Native American Wampanoag tribe fifty years later, Philbrick paints a vivid and compelling picture of conflict and colonialism, cooperation and betrayal. In so doing he brings to life a cast of compelling, even heroic, characters, and sets the scene for the development of the American nation.
