The Mayflower Society House Being the story of the Edward Winslow House, the Mayflower Society, the Pilgrims

"The Mayflower Society House" by Walter Merriam Pratt is a historical book that tells the story of a special house and the people connected to it. It focuses on the Edward Winslow House in Plymouth, built in 1754, and the important people who lived there, like Edward Winslow, who sided with the British during the American Revolution. But the book also goes back further in time to share the story of the Pilgrims who came to America on the Mayflower. It talks about why they left England, what they went through on their journey, and how they started Plymouth Colony. Key moments, such as the Mayflower Compact, an early set of rules for the colony, are highlighted to show how the Pilgrims helped create the ideas that America is based on. The book's aim is to celebrate the bravery of these early settlers.
