Editorial Review: Description: From their self-imposed exile in Holland and perilous Atlantic crossing in the Mayflower to unimaginable hardships encountered in their new land, this is the definitive story of the Pilgrims and how they came to live--and ultimately prosper--in the harsh climate of an unfamiliar world.

I plan on showing it to my high school students next year before they read about the pilgrims--excellent movie.

I read Bradford's account and Philbrick's account of the events. The special is faithful to both and throws in Native perspectives as well. Rating: - Superb!!In my opinion, this is the most fair and balanced description of the amazing event told from both the view of our white and American Indian brothers and sisters. America owes a great debt of gratitude to the American Indian. This program which accuratly tells the story of the Mayflower shows not only where America wrong, but also where they went right, when it came to the treatment for our American Indian brothers and sisters.
