Produktbeschreibung
Mary Chilton was the first Pilgrim to step on Plymouth Rock. The First Step tells the story of Mary Chilton Winslow who along with her parents came to the new world aboard the Mayflower and settled in Plimoth Planation. Mary tells how and why she and her parents left Leiden in the Netherlands to settle in the new world and of her experiences in the early days of Plimoth Plantation including being the first person on Plimoth Rock and participating in the First Thanksgiving. With the death of both her parents, Mary at 13 had to make her own way in the wilderness that was America in 1620. She was able to build her life in the new world and could well be considered one of our founding mothers. Mary is played as she would have been in the year 1671, a grandmother, at age 64 and living in Boston 50 years after her arrival on the Mayflower.
