Everyone is welcome to join a discussion of Mayflower: A Story of Community, Courage, and War by Nathaniel Philbrick.
Mayflower (2007), reveals that the story of the Pilgrims is much more than the well-known tale of piety and sacrifice; it is a fifty-five-year epic that is at once tragic, heroic, exhilarating, and profound. With towering figures like William Bradford, Massosit, Squanto and the distinctly American hero Benjamin Church at the center of his narrative, Philbrick has fashioned a fresh and compelling portrait of the dawn of American history—a history dominated right from the start by issues of race, violence, and religion.
This program is co-sponsored with the Bacon Free Library. It is FREE and open to the public.
