Mayflower by Nathaniel Philbrook

Don't let the thickness of this book keep you away! It goes into details that few books have gone into...the good, the bad, and the ugly. Filled with authentic details, the author gives the perspectives of both the English Americans and the Native Americans, exploding popular myths.

This is a fascinating read in an easy-to-understand style!

This is the current selection for our new book discussion group, "Great Books and Coffee", which is held every second Monday at 11 a.m. Join the lively discussion on it on November 10.

Some Reviewer comments:

"Two stories in one book...gives lots of interesting trivia about the original colony..."

"An excellent read for this Thanksgiving"
