From Good Luck to Gloucester: The Book of the Pilgrimage (1920) by Frederick Adelbert Bisbee is a historical account of the journey of the Pilgrims from their departure from England in 1620 to their settlement in the New World. The book covers the period from 1770 to 1920, tracing the history of the Pilgrims and their descendants as they established themselves in America.The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different period in the history of the Pilgrims. Part one covers the period from 1770 to 1820, during which time the Pilgrims’ story became widely known and celebrated in America. Part two covers the period from 1820 to 1870, during which time the Pilgrims’ story became a central part of American culture and identity. Part three covers the period from 1870 to 1920, during which time the Pilgrims’ story was used to promote American values and ideals.Throughout the book, Bisbee provides a detailed account of the Pilgrims’ journey, their struggles and triumphs, and their impact on American society. He also examines the ways in which the Pilgrims’ story has been interpreted and used over time, both as a source of inspiration and as a tool for political and social agendas.Overall, From Good Luck to Gloucester: The Book of the Pilgrimage is a comprehensive and engaging account of the Pilgrims’ journey and their enduring legacy in American history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
