The First Thanksgiving: Pilgrims, Puritans and the Founding of America

One of the top bestselling history shows Michael Medved has ever recorded!

Who were the people of the Plymouth Colony and why did they hold a feast of celebration in 1621 which we now call the first Thanksgiving? How did they manage that first winter in the wilderness? Why are these few settlers in New England held in such high esteem today when they considered their accomplishments all to be failures? And, what about those Puritans? Do they deserve the grim image history has given them?

Learn the answers to these questions and more in this special Thanksgiving Day holiday history program.
