The first American Thanksgiving was held in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1621. In 17th century, a group of pilgrims left England to explore the New World.

They landed in Provincetown Harbor after 65 days at sea.,B R _ General Introduction to Thanksgiving Day 3,The pilgrims were poorly equipped to cope with life in the wilderness. During their first winter in the new land, they suffered tremendously. Poor food, hard work, infectious diseases, and bitter cold weather killed about half of them.

The pilgrim men went hunting and returned with turkey and other wild game. The women prepared delicious dishes from corn, cranberries, squash and pumpkins.,For centuries, in peace and in war, in and in adversity, Americans have paused at this time of year to gather with loved ones and give thanks for lifes blessings.
