Mayflower by Nathaniel Philbrick Viking, 2006

Your teacher sitting you down on the day before Thanksgiving vacation and having you go through the lovely thoughts about the first Thanksgiving — which were so far from reality that author Nathaniel Philbrick wants to put us all ship-shape! And he will with his many-paged notes, bibliography and index. Truth is, we all need to get a grip on our actual early history. It was and is not an always easily or happily told tale. Take a look!
