This guidebook, however, is unique. IT attempts to interpret the specific monuments erected in memory of the Pilgrims, Plymough's founders. After twenty-four years giving walking tours, researching the monuments and the intent of the their sculptors as well as the writings of the Pilgrims, Dr. Paul Jehle has let the founders of Plymouth interpret the symbols erected in their memory.
Plymouth is a town that has been besieged by revisionist historians and special interest groups intent on presenting an anti-Christian and politically-correct history of America's spiritual birthplace. Thanks to the testimony of historian and pastor Dr. Paul Jehle, the tide is turning. For the first time ever, visitors to Plymouth can have a well-documented overview of the monuments and sites of America's spiritual birthplace in the words of the founders of Plymouth and America themselves. Published as a special project of Vision Forum Ministries and the Plymouth Rock Foundation, this pocket guide is indispensable to the student of American history or the Christian who wants to defend the righteous actions of the Pilgrim Fathers.
