In stunning prose, Nathaniel Philbrick evokes the drama of the voyage of the Mayflower and the eerie emptiness of coastal Massachusetts that greeted the Pilgrims. He tells how the settlers were able to gain the friendship of many powerful Native American leaders, including the charismatic Massasoit, and how they worked together to maintain peace. But the promise of the First Thanksgiving was broken with the next generation of leaders. Fifty-six years after the Mayflower's landing, a horrifying conflict, known today as King Philip's war, nearly wiped out the colonists and Natives alike, and forever altered the new country.
The Mayflower and the Pilgrims? New World is the perfect introduction for young readers to this epic story, at once tragic and heroic. Adapted specially for middle-grade readers, this book features a wealth of supplemental materials such as new maps and photographs, a time line, and a list of characters for added comprehension and accessibility.

The Mayflower and the Pilgrims' New World
This book was good although it sometimes got off topic. The first two sections were great! They were all about the Pilgrims planning to go to the New World and arriving there. They were also about there relationship with Massasoit and his Indians. The book got very tedious near the end when the focus turned to King Phillips' War. The hole last part of the book was all about battles of the war and they blended together and I got really confused and bored. I don't think the title should be called the Mayflower because the book barely talks about the Mayflower or the original "Pilgrims". Although parts of the book were boring there were lots of great photos and maps that really helped me see where the story was taking place. If you like history and the time period from 1600-1660's then this is the book for you, but, if you are not interested in war then you might want to choose another book on this time period.
