Somewhat difficult to read. "The Pilgrims of New England" by Mrs. J. B. Webb is a historical account likely written during the late 19th century that delves into the lives and struggles of the early Puritan settlers in New England. The narrative aims to provide an insightful portrayal of the trials, tribulations, and moral complexities faced by these settlers—often revered for their piety but also criticized for their intolerance. It centers around historical figures and events, particularly focusing on the experiences of families, such as the Maitland family, as they navigate the challenges of establishing a new life in a foreign land. At the start of the narrative, the author vividly depicts the arrival of the Pilgrims on the shores of New England in 1620 after a tumultuous journey aboard the Mayflower. The arrival is marked by both solemnity and hope as the settlers disembark into a harsh and unwelcoming environment, bringing to life their prayers and aspirations for the future. The opening chapters introduce the Maitland family, particularly Rodolph Maitland, his wife Helen, and their three children—Henrich, Edith, and Ludovico—as they face the stark realities of survival in this new world. Initial exploration efforts lead to a dangerous encounter with local Native American tribes, setting the stage for the intertwined fates of the settlers and the indigenous peoples as the story unfolds.
