"The Mayflower and Her Log; July 15, 1620-May 6, 1621 — Volume 2" by Azel Ames is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the significant voyage of the Mayflower, detailing the preparations for and the journey to the New World, while also documenting the roles of various individuals such as Robert Cushman and Thomas Weston in establishing the ship's charter. The book seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the Pilgrim’s journey from England to America, likely aiming to reveal the personal stories and broader implications of this monumental migration. The opening of "The Mayflower and Her Log" introduces the reader to the complexities surrounding the ship's charter and the individuals involved in securing the vessel for the voyage. Ames discusses the agreements made by the Merchant Adventurers and representatives of the Leyden congregation, underscoring the financial and political considerations that influenced their plans. It highlights the initial challenges faced in obtaining a ship and the urgency expressed by leaders like Cushman, stressing the need for immediate action to ensure the success of their intended colonial enterprise. Overall, the beginning sets the stage for a detailed exploration of the historical significance of the Mayflower's journey and the fervent efforts of the Pilgrims to establish a religious sanctuary in America.
