HST 307 - Plymouth Colony 1600-1692

3 credits D
Exploring both popular myth and history, this course examines the “Pilgrim Colony” as a case study in colonial history: colonist motivation, economic development, and the creation of turbulent new societies in America.  The course also emphasizes the cooperation and conflict with native peoples that characterized colonization everywhere.
