Book Synopsis

From robbing graves, to calling their neighbors "scum," to penning hot takes about the fantastic firewood situation in New England, the intrepid founding fathers and mothers of New England were way more complex and colorful than we've been led to believe. In Pilgrim Confidential, readers will encounter the Pilgrims--the small group of Puritan Separatists and their associates who banished themselves to the "vast and howling wilderness" of America--as they struggle to establish the first colony in New England. Sometimes dark, often humorous, the true tales of the founding of Plymouth are always surprising.
