William Bradford and Plymouth
A Colony Grows
William Bradford was the beloved second governor of Plymouth Colony. He was so respected, in fact, that he was elected 30 times to that post! In this book, kids will learn about Bradford's early life, his flight to Holland to escape religious intolerance, and his leadership of the Pilgrims in America. Bradford called his journal about life at Plymouth Colony "scribbled writing," but his book Of Plymouth Plantation is a vital source of information about this historic time and place.
