Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four hundred years ago, a small band of ordinary men and women set out on an epic journey from Britain to New England facing stormy seas, near starvation and death. What drove them to undertake this hazardous journey and endure such hardships? In this book, John Brown demonstrates that it was principally their desire for freedom to worship God according to their consciences. Their journey began long before the Mayflower set sail, and the author charts the persecution they had endured in Britain, their settling in Holland for a period, and all the events leading to their sailing in 1620, first from Southampton where they had gathered and then finally from Plymouth. The initial hardships, cold and many deaths experienced through the first winter in their new home only deepened their resolve to continue in dependence on God. Continuing difficulties gradually yielded to success and the addition of further emigrants to strengthen them and establish other colonies. This book covers events up to the uniting of these colonies in 1643. John Brown (1830-1922) was minister of the Bunyan Meeting in Bedford and is well known for his historical works.

Download or read book This Land Is Their Land written by David J. Silverman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ahead of the 400th anniversary of the first Thanksgiving, a new look at the Plymouth colony's founding events, told for the first time with Wampanoag people at the heart of the story. In March 1621, when Plymouth's survival was hanging in the balance, the Wampanoag sachem (or chief), Ousamequin (Massasoit), and Plymouth's governor, John Carver, declared their people's friendship for each other and a commitment to mutual defense. Later that autumn, the English gathered their first successful harvest and lifted the specter of starvation. Ousamequin and 90 of his men then visited Plymouth for the “First Thanksgiving.” The treaty remained operative until King Philip's War in 1675, when 50 years of uneasy peace between the two parties would come to an end. 400 years after that famous meal, historian David J. Silverman sheds profound new light on the events that led to the creation, and bloody dissolution, of this alliance. Focusing on the Wampanoag Indians, Silverman deepens the narrative to consider tensions that developed well before 1620 and lasted long after the devastating war-tracing the Wampanoags' ongoing struggle for self-determination up to this very day. This unsettling history reveals why some modern Native people hold a Day of Mourning on Thanksgiving, a holiday which celebrates a myth of colonialism and white proprietorship of the United States. This Land is Their Land shows that it is time to rethink how we, as a pluralistic nation, tell the history of Thanksgiving.
Download or read book Conservative Christian Politics in Russia and the United States written by John Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the politics of conservative Christian churches and social movements in Russia and the United States, focusing on their similar concerns but very different modes of political engagement. Whilst secularisation continues to chip away at religious adherence and practice in Europe, religion is often, quite rightly, seen as an influential force in the politics of the United States, and, more questionably, as a significant influence in contemporary Russia. This book looks at the broad social movement making up the US Christian Right and the profoundly hierarchical leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church as socially conservative actors, and some of the ways they have engaged in contemporary politics. Both are seeking to halt the perceived drift towards a more secular political order; both face significant challenges in handling the consequences of secularism, pluralism and liberal individualism; and both believe that their nations can only be great if they remain true to their religious heritage. In exploring their experience, the book focuses on shared and different elements in their diagnosis of what is wrong with their societies and how this affects their policy intervention over issues such as religious and ethnic belonging, sexual orientation and education. Drawing on political, sociological and religious studies, this work will be a useful reference for students and scholars of religion and politics, Russian politics and American politics.
