A small group of people identified as Saints and Strangers, founded Plimoth Plantation and against all odds, survived. Today that area is Plymouth, MA. Before the English settlers arrived it had been the Native community of Patuxet. Author Haueisen spent seven years researching the story in New England, England, and The Netherlands for her historical fiction account of the religious and political events in Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries that prompted the religious rebels to sail to a new-to-them world. Mayflower Chronicles: The Tale of Two Cultures tells the story from the perspective of both the English immigrants and the Indigenous people who encountered them on the shores of Cape Cod.''
