This was an excellent book and an important read that goes beyond the sugar-coated legend that is Thanksgiving. Don't get me wrong...I love Thanksgiving...but it's important to know the real story, and what went on before and years after that "occasion."

In the epilogue, he makes this statement "For a nation that has come to recognize that one of its greatest strengths is its diversity, the first fifty years of Plymouth Colony stand as a model of what America might have been from the very beginning." This book was published in 2006. I think that if this book had been written and published after 2008, he may have worded this a bit differently, or perhaps even left it out completely. Our first black president served from 2008 to 2016 and racism came to the forefront again (not that it was ever not there), and then we get a Trump presidency and things have completely gone off the rails. I truly hope that good will triumph in the end.
