Summary "The Women Who Came in the Mayflower" by Annie Russell Marble is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the experiences and contributions of the women who traveled on the Mayflower and their roles in the early Plymouth Colony. It aims to highlight their endurance, struggles, and the way they shaped the communal life of the settlers during the formative years of the colony. The opening of the work sets the stage for exploring the conditions faced by the Pilgrim women during their perilous journey to America and the subsequent hardships they encountered upon arrival. The text begins with a quote from Bradford’s History, emphasizing the determination of these women as they left behind their homes for an uncertain future. Marble vividly describes the physical endurance required during the voyage, noting the cramped conditions on the ship and the psychological strain from leaving loved ones in Holland. The narrative captures various significant moments, including births, deaths, and the trials of daily life in the new settlement, illustrating both the individual and collective resilience of the women as they contributed significantly to establishing the Plymouth colony amidst harsh realities.
