Overview
James Chilton was a complex man with a complex story. He had ties to the Separatist group at Sandwich and to non-conformist communities around Canterbury, Kent. In this new book, Sue Allan has brought together the historical bits and pieces and added significant new information from her own research to achieve a better understanding of who James Chilton was and what influenced him and his wife to make that fateful journey to New England. In her signature style, Sue has woven all the raw details into a compelling biography of this lesser-known but intriguing Mayflower passenger.
"Sue Allan certainly is to be commended for her meticulous, intricate research,
including perusal of obscure old legal documents!"
