I feel this was a fair and honest treatment of the early years of our nation. The narrative starts with the reason, plan, and journey of the group of Separatists, later known as the Pilgrims, from Holland to Massachusetts, describes their early settlement and accompanying challenges, followed by the series of conflicts with the neighboring native tribes, culminating to King Philip's War in 1675-76.
