One Book, One College

The One Book, One College committee is pleased to announce that
Mayflower: a story of courage, community, and war
by Nathaniel Philbrick is their Fall 2007 selection. Chosen because of its local interest and timeliness for the Fall Semester, Mayflower won the Massachusetts nonfiction award for 2007!

Educational Materials

“Gripping... compelling... Philbrick has a gift for drawing telling details from the primary accounts on which much of his book is based... [He] seamlessly weaves into his tale much of the new understanding of native people, the environment, the impact of disease, and other topics gleaned from the previous generation of historical scholarship... a fascinating story, and one Philbrick tells very well.”

-- Jenny Hale Pulsipher, Boston Globe
