Description
Book SynopsisThe Massachusetts Chronicles, developed in partnership with Plymouth 400, features key events in the state’s history through a 100-moment photographic timeline and over 60 newspaper-style stories, each one written as if the event has just happened.
For thousands of years Native people lived in what is now the state of Massachusetts. Then, with the arrival of the Pilgrims in 1620, their world changed forever. See the story of Massachusetts unfold over 400 years, chronicled in a series of epic moments, many of which have defined US and world history.
The Massachusetts Chronicles also includes QR codes that enable readers to see these stories in a series of videos told through the eyes of students.
Trade Review“[The book] really is written and studied from both the native side of history and the English side of history, and even though that history is the same history, it can be seen by the people involved from different sides.”
-- Michele Pecararo, Executive Director of Plymouth 400 * New England Cable News *
“All the mythology that has been pumped out for 400 years that has excluded us, that’s the revisionist history. We are adding back in pieces that should have never been left out in the first place.”
-- Linda Coombs, co-author of The Massachusetts Chronicles * New England Cable News *
The Massachusetts Chronicles is a “teaching tool for what’s going on in our nation today”
-- Michele Pecararo, Executive Director of Plymouth 400 * New England Cable News *
