annabannana's review against another edition
Better than a lot of the history books on this subject, but still written from a Eurocentric view.
It does not give enough consideration to the oral histories of the indigenous people involved in these events.

Thank you Random House and NetGalley for sharing this eARC in exchange for an honest review. This book is important and a must read. It is full of factual information, great story telling, and eye catching graphics.

The true story of what happened before and after the Mayflower arrived in the States.
This is probably my least favorite book in this series, since I'm not really interested in this time period. As always, this book tells the truth about how savage the pilgrims (and others) really were and how horrible they treated the tribes that had been living in the States for thousands of years. I really appreciated the comment the author makes about how people are still studying artifacts and the history of our society, so of course, what we know about history is ever evolving... some people don't understand this 😅

One of the main things that I like about this book is that it helps simplify things that might have been written out so long ago and put into words in a way that we today can understand. I think this book would be great for teachers to read to their classroom around thanksgiving time seeings how it was so well researched and thought out that way today’s youth really understand how things went down in history and not just grow up learning about the myths.

My twelve-year-old read this first, but I got my hands on it soon enough and wow! So amazing to learn the real history so respectfully told.

Tons of information, including some I had not read about before, done in a way that will keep kids attention and makes it fun to learn.
