Freedom: William Bradford and the American Pilgrims Part 1, 2 CDS

Four hundred years ago, 102 men, women, and children crowded between decks of a small cargo ship named The Mayflower and set out for the New World. Who were these people, willing to risk everything and move to a wild, untamed land? Why did they go, what did they do, and does any of it even matter today? Using talented voice actors with dramatic sound effects and including recent historical discoveries, Freedom: William Bradford and the American Pilgrims Part 1 tells a riveting and timely tale of determination, endurance, and conviction. The six episodes in this set tell the first part of the story from meeting young William Bradford through the trials of fleeing England, living in Holland, then preparing for and living through the voyage to America, and the first days in the New World. Over 2 hours on 2 audio CDs. Ages 12 and up.
