About This Book

A compact visitor’s guide combines a concise account of the Pilgrim migration and early settlement with a practical, illustrated tour of Plymouth’s historic places. It summarizes the colony’s first hardships and subsequent arrivals, then describes monuments, houses, burial sites, streets, and museum collections, offering maps and site-by-site notes. Civic institutions, local industries, natural features, and commemorative traditions are woven together to orient both casual tourists and readers seeking historical context, while legends, architectural details, and directions help plan self-guided visits to the town’s principal shrines and memorials.
