Publisher's Synopsis

Bradford's History of Plimoth Plantation is a historical account of the founding and early years of the Plymouth Colony in Massachusetts, written by William Bradford, one of the colony's leaders. The book was originally written in the 17th century and chronicles the Pilgrims' journey from England to America on the Mayflower, their struggles to establish a settlement in the New World, and their interactions with Native American tribes. This edition of the book is a facsimile of the original manuscript, which was lost for many years before being rediscovered in the 19th century. The manuscript includes Bradford's handwritten notes and revisions, providing a unique glimpse into his thought process and the evolution of the text. The book also includes an introduction and annotations by the editor, providing historical context and explaining some of the more obscure references in the text. Overall, Bradford's History of Plimoth Plantation is a fascinating primary source for anyone interested in the early history of America and the experiences of the Pilgrims.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
