Description
Explores the Pilgrims reasons for coming to America and dramatically re-creates the way they lived at Plymouth Plantation. Viewers see the Pilgrims cross the Atlantic, search for a place to build their new village, suffer through their first winter, build their homes, trade with their Indian neighbors and learn how to plant Indian corn. The Mayflower Compact and the treaty between the Pilgrims and chief Massasoit are also presented. This film examines how Plymouth Plantation affected the Native Americans living in New England and shows how eventually this settlement led to the growth of Colonial America.
