Synopsis
Excerpt from The Term Pilgrim Fathers
The Springfield Republican says: It is as much popular impression that the Pilgrims were Puritans as that the witches of Salem were burned at the stake. If so, it is a good thing the mistake has been publicly made in high circles. It will tend to dispel a gross popular error (p.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the term "Pilgrim Fathers" as applied to the English settlers who arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1620. The author's purpose is to determine when the term was first used to describe the settlers and what it signifies in terms of the history and significance of their settlement. The author finds that the term "Pilgrim Fathers" only became popular in the late 18th century and it is not an appropriate term to apply to the settlers, the majority of whom were not Pilgrims but farmers. By placing the settlers and their journey within the broader historical context of 17th-century English history, the author presents a fresh perspective on the origins of American history. The author shows how the Pilgrims' experience was shaped by the religious and political turmoil of their time and the book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Pilgrims or the early history of the United States. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333463908_0
