Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Account of the Discovery of an Ancient Ship on the Eastern Shore of Cape Cod Our earliest historians record that in 1626 a ship entered a harbor on the eastern coast of Cape Cod, and that while therein, a violent storm arose, closed its entrance, and prevented her departure. This harbor was known to the first settlers as The Old Ship Harbor; but the memory of its location has faded from the minds of the men of the present generation, and exists only in the form of an uncertain tradition. I have made many inquiries of the aged respecting its location, but could Obtain no certain information. There is another tradition, more uncertain and unreliable, that the name of the Old Ship was Sparrow Hawk.

Download or read book Cape Cod and Plymouth Colony in the Seventeenth Century written by H. Roger King and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1994 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the contribution of Cape Cod to the transformation of the Pilgrims' Plymouth into a mature colony. The author covers the exploration of the region as well as the early travels to the Cape before its settlement, explaining the eventual significance of individual towns like Sandwich, which became the colony's center of Quakerism. Politically, Cape towns forced the colony to adopt a representative legislature and economically, the Cape provided acreage for farming and sites for additional towns. King also examines why, despite the expansion and the growth, Plymouth still remained a poor and underpopulated colony. This book stands alone as the only study of the entire Cape to be published in this century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Wilkins’ flowing text carries readers along on a marvelous journey, offering greater insight . . . into the challenges of 17th century travel” (The Barnstable Patriot). In 1626–27, the Sparrow-Hawk began her final journey across the brutal winter waves of the Atlantic Ocean, departing from the southern coast of England with America as her goal. As cases of scurvy and whispers of mutiny rose, the hopes of those aboard the small vessel began to fade. The ever-changing coastline of Cape Cod caused the Sparrow-Hawk to run aground. Desperate to repair their ship and attain their goal of becoming wealthy Virginia tobacco planters, the passengers wrecked her again, forcing them to abandon their beloved ship and take up residence in Plymouth Colony. Revealed by the tides over two hundred years later, the wreckage was pillaged by local scavengers and put on display in Boston. Join Mark Wilkins as he delves into the secrets of the Sparrow-Hawk.
