New, and Old, Reasons to Go to Plymouth This Thanksgiving
“In that day you will say: ‘Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done, and proclaim that his name is exalted’.” —Isaiah 12:4

A nation born out of the womb of religious liberty has much to thank Almighty God for. The documents you see in the banner above, chronicling a long history of Thanksgivings in America, are part of Dan Ford’s personal collection. Dan views these documents as tools to help us understand the minds of the people who drafted them and who proclaimed them in the public square and the pulpit, noting, “Thankfulness is an attitude that we are to embrace rather than something simply to admire in goodly people now deceased. Thanksgivings are ‘good medicine’ for our souls too. It does us no good to simply remember other people’s thanksgivings. We need to see their thankfulness as our example.” Come to Plymouth and cultivate gratitude as we walk in the footsteps of our founders, hold and read the documents they produced and gain insight into the rich inheritance we have been given. You’ll be glad you did.

New Feature!
Antiquarian Book Shopping with Bill and Dan

“I cannot live without books; but fewer will suffice where amusement, and not use, is the only future object.”
—Thomas Jefferson to John Adams, 10 June 1815

Boston has been a premier book publishing and book-seller’s emporium since colonial days. Many great American authors wrote and printed their books in Boston and all New England came there to buy. Today there are several wonderful and well-known old bookshops still in business below the internet and even below the street level. We have added Commonwealth Books, located below the Old South Meeting House as one of our stops along the Freedom Trail. Bill Potter has never left that bookshop empty-handed and does not want to terminate such a consistent tradition on this tour.

Why Landmark Tours?
A Case Study at The Old South Meeting House

Why do you need to go on a Landmark Tour? Because, brass plaques and British accents do not authenticate a message. You need to know the truth. Take this display at The Old South Meeting House for example — “Voices of Protest”. Landmark Historian Bill Potter comments, “The message is clear, America stands for pluralism, dissent and revolution” read Bill’s valuable and insightful critique here.

Bill and Dan’s Top Reasons to Go to
Plymouth and Boston this Thanksgiving

  1. It is the cradle of Christian civilization in America.
  2. We simply would not be a nation had our forefathers not been a thankful people.
  3. Those early Thanksgivings were powerful witnesses of God’s unimaginable strength amid unbelievable human frailty.
  4. You need to know the difference between the Kennedys and the Mathers.
  5. Reading it in a book is not enough, you need to walk the very ground of those who really lived out what they believed in very their souls.
  6. It will be one of the greatest and most blessed experiences your family will ever have.
  7. The truths of our national past are being forgotten and destroyed; you need a refresher.
  8. We offer a tour from a providential perspective that no one else is providing.
  9. We’ll be learning tons of valuable stuff and unlearning tons upon tons of useless stuff.
  10. You will be able to better appreciate what the Pilgrim fathers sacrificed for their families and their posterity (us).
  11. These sites are our remembrance stones and it is unconscionable for Christians to neglect them.
  12. Such a tour will emblazon on our minds the million things we can be thankful for in ways no other place or time can fulfill.
  13. I am not getting any younger (Bill Potter)
  14. If not now, when? If not you, who?
