There is far more to the story of the Pilgrims than the perilous voyage in the Mayflower, the brutal first winter at Plymouth, and the joyful first Thanksgiving with Squanto and their Indian friends. The vivid memoirs, letters, and personal accounts collected in The Pilgrim Chronicles present the full, compelling story of their anguished journey and heroic strength. The award-winning historian Rod Gragg brings the Pilgrims to life in this lavishly illustrated guide filled with moving eyewitness narratives. From their persecution in England and painful exile in Holland to their voyage across the Atlantic and their struggle to survive among the Indians in an untamed wilderness, Gragg takes you on the harrowing and inspiring journey of a people seeking religious freedom.
