Summary

Plymouth Rock has long been a symbol of the Pilgrims' journey to and settlement in America. But how much of the story about it is true? What did the Pilgrims' arrival mean to the Wampanoag people who were already living there? What were the long-lasting effects of the two groups meeting? How did a seaside rock come to be known as the Pilgrims' landing place? Was it really part of their story at all? Find out the answers to these questions and discover more of what Plymouth Rock can tell us about American history. --Adapted from back cover
