Book excerpt: Noted Plymouth historian James W. Baker presents the ultimate handbook on the history and symbolic role of Plymouth Rock, revealing the peripatetic background and changing meanings of the famed national landmark and tourist site. Moved, cracked, chipped at, souvenir hunted, lauded, and laughed at, the Rock as an emblem of evolving cultural values has endured for centuries, yet offers fresh ground for examining the melting pot of tradition, myth and meaning in America's founding stories. Richly illustrated with historic images, Plymouth Rock's Own Story is published by the 200-year-old Pilgrim Society, stewards of Pilgrim Hall Museum where the famous upper portion of Plymouth Rock was displayed for nearly fifty years in the 19th century.

Book excerpt: There was a lot more to Plymouth Rock than what we see today. How big was she? What kind of shape did she have? What happened to her? If she had not been lost to history, these would be questions to ask. "Underwhelmed", that's the feeling most people get when gazing down upon our cherished rock. One might think that our legendary National Treasure should be larger. Well, the truth is, she was larger, many many times larger. The story of how Plymouth Rock was separated from her lower part is no big secret. But in my research, I found there was much more to this story. The full story of the "Other Plymouth Rock" seemed to have been forgotten. In this book, I write the stories surrounding Plymouth Rock, the triumphs, and the tragedies. It is within these stories where I take a hard left turn and is where I take a deep-dive of discovery. In taking a closer look at Plymouth Rock, I found that there were witnesses. Although greatly aged, these witnesses were willing to speak with anyone who would listen. But no one would listen, so the witnesses just sat there, staring back at us. As it turns out our witnesses were a handful of old surviving photographs, it was just a matter of someone taking a closer look to find out what these images were trying to say. It is these eyewitnesses that give us the answers to the lost history of Plymouth Rock. This book tells us things that have long since been buried away. As it turns out the story of the "Other Plymouth Rock" is far more interesting than that of her acclaimed counterpart. Steven L. Smith ~~~~~ They say there are two deaths, the first when you breathe your last breath, the second when your name is breathed for the last time. -unknown
Book Synopsis On Plymouth Rock (Classic Reprint) by : Samuel Adams Drake
Download or read book On Plymouth Rock (Classic Reprint) written by Samuel Adams Drake and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Plymouth Rock There are some things which the young people of this country should know by heart. Foremost among them is the simple, yet noble, story of the Pilgrim Fathers. How much this story transcends all others was lately emphasized by the high honors paid to the ancient manuscript history of Plymouth Colony, written by Governor Bradford, upon its return to its rightful owners, in this country. Nobody can read it without being deeply moved. It takes us back, along the deep-flowing river of time, to the very fountain-head of our national life. It is a story to be proud of. Not to' the book alone, but to the grand heroism it tells us of, the sterling character it reveals, were these high honors paid. To the faint-hearted there is a strengthening power in its pages. To the strong it is a splendid example of serene fortitude, of high resolve. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Memory's Nation written by John Seelye and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long celebrated as a symbol of the country's origins, Plymouth Rock no longer receives much national attention. In fact, historians now generally agree that the Pilgrims' storied landing on the Rock never actually took place--the tradition having emerged more than a century after the arrival of the Mayflower. In Memory's Nation, however, John Seelye is not interested in the factual truth of the landing. He argues that what truly gives Plymouth Rock its significance is more than two centuries of oratorical, literary, and artistic celebrations of the Pilgrims' arrival. Seelye traces how different political, religious, and social groups used the image of the Rock on behalf of their own specific causes and ideologies. Drawing on a wealth of speeches, paintings, and popular illustrations, he shows how Plymouth Rock changed in meaning over the years, beginning as a symbol of freedom evoked in patriotic sermons at the start of the Revolution and eventually becoming an icon of exclusion during the 1920s.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plymouth's Rock: The Rock Whence We Were Hewn We have come to talk of the olden time. We have come to honor the dead and to bear away with us, if we may, some benefit from such filial homage for ourselves and for our children. How unwonted our emotions strangers looking upon each other for the first time, yet one family! As we think of home and childhood, our memories fly over the broad continent to alight, some, among the wintry hills of New Hampshire, and others amid the savannahs of the sunny South some on the banks of the Kennebec, and others where the father of waters rolls the tribute of a thousand rivers to the sea.
