This is a story of a dream-a place where there was no religious persecution. The Puritans set out on the Mayflower to find that haven. The story shows how the Pilgrims followed their plain, ascetic faith at the worst possible time-a time of enforced conformity. The program follows the plan that started at the home of Wm. Brewster and leading to the first exodus led by John Smith. The relationship with Native Americans is examined. The importance of the Mayflower Compact and the development of governing rules are studied. The founding of the Plymouth Colony is reviewed. Thanksgiving is established and a major cultural influence on the colonies has begun. |
