Edward Winslow

by Liberty and Power

For a brief but scholarly account of the life of Edward Winslow, the first governor of the colony of present-day Plymouth, Massachusetts, go here . This entry in the new Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is posted for only a week so I encourage readers to check it out soon. I shall soon be posting much more on the magnificent ODNB. On which note I conclude by wishing all our readers a Very Happy Thanksgiving.
