About this book
A search for Plymouth Rock becomes a small comedy of local directions in Frances Lester Warner's travel sketchbook. Barbara and the narrator consult boys by the waterfront, who first point them toward the dismantled canopy rather than the famous stone. Around this encounter, Warner notices houses shaped by seafaring life, the close streets of old Plymouth, and the doors and fireplace tiles that give historic buildings their individual character.
Visits to Duxbury bring the Alden and Standish families into the account, alongside an artist's search for places to sketch. The travelers compare views gained on foot with those seen from a car, then pause by the Standish house to look across the harbor. Conversation, architectural observation and reflections on the Pilgrim past share the page.
