Mayflower A Story Of Courage Community And War Summary

780 Words | 4 Pages

Philbrick’s main purpose in writing the Mayflower was to illustrate to the readers, that the story of the Pilgrims does not end with the First Thanksgiving, nor was it simple as the modern generation perceived it to be. Instead, it is a fifty-five year journey, which is filled with both disastrous and courageous times and whose customs and beliefs are still carried on to us today. The preface of the Mayflower: A Story of Courage, Community, and War contains few lines that state the thesis of the book. One of line by Philbrick states that, “I grew up thinking the story of the Pilgrims ended with the First Thanksgiving… however when you look at how the Pilgrims and their children maintained fifty year of peace with the Wampanoag…or how peace suddenly erupted into a war… the story of the Pilgrims did not end with the First Thanksgiving.” (Philbrick 1)

Tony Horwitz's A Voyage Long And Strange

1577 Words | 7 Pages

In writing A Voyage Long and Strange, Tony Horwitz’s goal is clear, to educate others on early America and debunk ignorant myths. Horwitz’s reason for wanting to achieve this goal is because of his own ignorance that he sees while at Plymouth Rock. “Expensively educated at a private school and university- a history major, no less!-I’d matriculated to middle age with a third grader’s grasp of early America.” Horwitz is disappointed in his own lack of knowledge of his home country, especially with his background history and decides not only to research America’s true beginnings, but to also follow the path of those who originally yearned to discover America.

The Relationship Between The Pilgrims And Native Americans

188 Words | 1 Pages

There is more to the story of the Pilgrims and the Native Americans than the time before the First Thanksgiving, the Pilgrims’ struggles did not cease to exist when they came together with the local Pokanoket tribe and feasted on that autumn day. The relationship between the Pilgrims and the natives did not run smoothly forever and there is not an explanation taught to why the peace suddenly disappeared. Philbrick’s thesis revolves around the fact that although American history is taught in schools, there is a focus solely on the time of that first Thanksgiving and there is a gap until the American Revolution. This gap, according to Philbrick, is an important one, with King Philip’s war showing that there was a large piece of information missing
