Reviews for Bradford's History "Of Plimoth Plantation." From the Original Manuscript. With a Report of the Proceedings Incident to the Return of the Manuscript to Massachusetts (Paperback) I have two of the original 1898 books, but I was so happy to acquire this 2008 reprint by Echo Library. Being a lover of history, I love this book, especially because William Bradford, governor of the Plymouth Colony and author of "Of Plimoth Plantation" was my eighth great-grandfather. The first section of the book is the story of how the manuscript was lost (stolen) during the Revolutionary War and found in 1856 in a bishop's library in England and finally returned to Massachusetts in 1897. Bradford's manuscript was passed down to Major William Bradford Junior, who willed it to his son, Major John Bradford. John Bradford willed the manuscript to his son, Samuel. Samuel never received it. John had loaned it out to several historians, lastly to Rev. Thomas Prince of Boston. The manuscript was stolen from Prince's library in the Old South Church about 1775. I found the report of the proceedings (first 39 pages) incident to the return of the manuscript to Massachusetts most fascinating. I have several editions of "Of Plimoth Plantation" and always enjoy rereading them. Anyone who loves American history should love this book.
