So much information in such a small book. Journal entries of William Bradford are included with the original spelling.
Spoiler alert:
I never knew how many attacks from the English the Separatists had to deal with. Attacks in the sense of them stealing from them and arson. That was part of the reason why Winslow went back to England, to fight the scheming English. But what ever became of him and what was the outcome of his pamphlet "Good News from New England"?
Captain Standish proved to be very beneficial to the new colony and good at reading trouble.
It's definitely worth reading. ( )

Chronicles, in text and illustrations, the day-to-day life of the early Pilgrims in the Plimouth Colony.

Tells simply and factually the story of the the pilgrims who first came to America. Somewhat dry, but not excessively so. Daugherty uses primary sources throughout his narrative, and does not shy away from the religious perspective of the pilgrims. A good resource.
