Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims and Their History I have attempted a new study Pilgrims and their history from the sources. While I was unable to find much new evidence of prime importance, I have perhaps been able to exclude from further consideration the possibility of ascertaining information about the Pilgrims from the evidence concerning the Puritan Movement in England from 1580 to 1610, and from that regarding the history of the Established Church for the same period. But I have been able to place the older material about the Pilgrims in its relation to the more recent evidence concerning English church history, and have as well utilized for the first time the Plymouth First Church records and many Plymouth wills, which contain much of great value on economic and social history. No further accession of evidence is now probable and it is therefore an important fact, though due to no merit of mine, that the narrative presented in these pages possesses a certain aspect of finality. A new study of old evidence and the use of some new material has made possible certain differences in interpretation, in emphasis, and in judgment, the importance of which must not be unduly exaggerated. I have felt it possible to show that the Pilgrims were not subject to active persecution in England from Church or State; that Robinson's Congregation at Leyden was considerably smaller than most students have estimated; and that the really significant achievement was not the emigration itself, but the economic success of the years 1621 to 1627.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of the Pilgrims A desire to know more of a story than these lessons gave, was another valuable result. For this desire on the part of the children to see a story in its natural setting, and to know what came before and what followed after, showed that they had reached the period which is a happy time for laying a strong foundation upon which to build later work; a. Time in which the awakened interest in people and events should be used to establish a firm basis for future reading and study in both biography and history. The Pilgrim Stories as originally written were read in a number of schools with the same satisfactory results. Now, carefully revised and graded in vocabulary, they are offered in book form with the hope that other pupils and teachers may use them with equal benefit and pleasure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Young People's History of the Pilgrims One of many correspondents complains that "the trouble with Americans seems to be that they consider that the Pilgrims are a unique creation of their own and that they had 'cornered' the market of the world on them - like the American Indians. It is somewhat hard for them to realize that these Puritans were bonafide, every-day Englishmen." Too true! I have tried to avoid this Yankee tendency, to sketch rather the historical backgrounds, to remember the meanings of words as used in former days, and, in picturing the past, to unshackle our minds from the present.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims First Year in New England In so many details of minor facts, it is well nigh impossible to avoid errors; but it is hoped that few of importance have escaped detection. When state ments are made, which have only probability for their basis, care has been taken to indicate this, so that they may be readily distinguished from what is supported by positive evidence. A number of inter esting anecdotes, though often published, have been omitted in this work, because probabilities were strongly against their truth.

This book was released on 2016-08-20 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The England and Holland of the Pilgrims Most of. The contents of this work were collected by my father, the late Dr. Henry M. Dexter. To this task he devoted much of his time for many years. Of Pilgrim descent and born almost within sight of Plymouth Rock, he desired to give to the world a more complete record than any which had been written of the religious and ecclesiastical movement in England that made the Pilgrims what they were, and of their emigration to Holland and their life there before they came to America. But he died in 1890, leaving his chosen task unaccomplished. In his first rough draft he had written five long chapters which appear in these pages as the first five books and a part Iof the sixth. But they were hardly more than rudely shaped masses of crude material, as he had not reached that work of revision which no one else was more competent than he to per form. By his will the manuscript passed at his death into the hands of Prof. Franklin B. Dexter, Litt. D., of Yale University, and myself. Professor Dexter completed the author's last chap ter, or book, and I have rewritten and edited the whole, adding considerable material obtained by my own researches.

Between them, here and there, he could see blue fragments of the distant downs, and the delicate, windy line that divided them from the Sky. He sighed a little, and returned to his soaping. Now there was a time, he proceeded, there was a time when I rose punctually, if not with the lark, at any rate no later than nine in the morning at least; wasn't there, Barker?
