The most important and influential source of information about Plymouth, this landmark account was written by the colony's governor. It vividly documents the Pilgrims' first stop in Holland, their harrowing transatlantic crossing, the first harsh winter in the new land, and the help from Native Americans that saved their lives.
The current edition, rendered into modern English and with an introduction by Harold Paget, remains among the most readable books from seventeenth-century America.
