by William Bradford

"Bradford's History of the Plymouth Settlement, 1608-1650" by William Bradford is a journal written between 1630 and 1651. Bradford, leader of Plymouth Colony, chronicles the Pilgrims' journey from their 1608 settlement in the Dutch Republic through their famous Mayflower voyage to their first decades in the New World. Regarded as the most authoritative account of the Pilgrims, this vivid historical record disappeared during the American Revolutionary War and wasn't recovered until it surfaced in London decades later, finally returning to Massachusetts in 1897.
