The 1621 Harvest Feast
Description:... Sometime between September 21 and November 9, 1621, the English colonists, whom we call Pilgrims, and the Wampanoag people shared a harvest celebration. Through time, stories and popular myths have evolved around this event, which has come to be known as the first Thanksgiving. But this is the story of what may have happened during those days, as told by Dancing Moccasins, a 14-year-old Wampanoag boy, and Resolved White, a 6-year-old English boy.Photographed in full color at Plimoth Plantation, this fascinating reenactment will let readers experience a time when early English colonists settled on the rich and fertile land of the Wampanoag people.
