William Bradford wrote this account between 1630 and 1647. It documents the Pilgrims' adventures, their first stop in Holland, the crossing aboard the Mayflower, the first harsh winter in the new colony, and the help from friendly Native Americans that saved their lives. It's a vital and influential source of information about our nation's past. Bradford's History of the Plymouth Settlement, 1608-1650, was rendered into modern English by Harold Paget in the early 1900's and we offer two complete and unabridged editions of that modern translation.
