Nathaniel Philbrick – Mayflower (The Folio Society, 2019) Edition note: Folio Society edition published in 2019, introduced by Paul Theroux. Includes colour plates, historical maps and high-quality reproductions drawn from early colonial sources. Introduction Mayflower is Nathaniel Philbrick’s acclaimed account of the 1620 voyage of the Pilgrims and the complex, often turbulent early years of settlement in New England. Blending narrative history with meticulous research, Philbrick retraces the journey across the Atlantic, the settlers’ fragile first winter, their alliances and conflicts with Indigenous nations, and the rise of tensions that culminated in King Philip’s War. The Folio Society edition presents the work in a beautifully produced format, enriched with detailed visual material that brings the historical landscape vividly to life. Content The volume includes the complete text of the book together with an introduction by Paul Theroux.
