Book Description
When the Mayflower embarked on her famous voyage to America in 1620, she was carrying 102 passengers. To most, they are simply known as “the Pilgrims.” Perhaps the name of Governor William Bradford, Elder William Brewster, or Captain Myles Standish are vaguely familiar; but the vast majority of the Mayflower passengers have remained anonymous and nameless. In The Mayflower and Her Passengers, I have attempted to resurrect the unique individuality of each passenger by providing short biographies for each person or family group. Also included is a groundbreaking new biography of the Mayflower ship itself.

Book Description
An ambitious new history of the Pilgrims and Plymouth Colony, published for the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s landing In 1620, separatists from the Church of England set sail across the Atlantic aboard the Mayflower. Understanding themselves as spiritual pilgrims, they left to preserve their liberty to worship God in accordance with their understanding of the Bible. There exists, however, an alternative, more dispiriting version of their story. In it, the Pilgrims are religious zealots who persecuted dissenters and decimated the Native peoples through warfare and by stealing their land. The Pilgrims’ definition of liberty was, in practice, very narrow. Drawing on original research using underutilized sources, John G. Turner moves beyond these familiar narratives in his sweeping and authoritative new history of Plymouth Colony. Instead of depicting the Pilgrims as otherworldly saints or extraordinary sinners, he tells how a variety of English settlers and Native peoples engaged in a contest for the meaning of American liberty.

A biography of Peregrine White, born on the Mayflower in 1620 and longtime resident of Marshfield, Massachusetts from c. 1640 until his death in 1704. Author and Historian Stephen C. O'Neill says: Peregrine White was born aboard the Mayflower 400 years ago and was a 55 year resident of Marshfield. The step-son of colonial governor, Edward Winslow, and half-brother to governor, Josiah Winslow. Peregrine was a Freeman of the Colony, served as a constable, surveyor of highways, militia ensign-bearer and local militia captain. The research explores White's interaction with the Native people, notably with Josias Wampatuck Chickatabut, sachem of the Massachusetts people, and his service during the King Philip's War. Local history followers, students and researchers will value the consolidation of data from dozens of sources into one readable illustrated book. He goes on to say that Peregrines life reflects the life and times of Plymouth Colony until the beginning of the Massachusetts Bay Colony of 17th Century England. Target audience is people of all ages interested in the history of Plymouth Colony, Pilgrims, Native Americans, and genealogy .
