| Summary | "The Mayflower and Her Log; July 15, 1620-May 6, 1621 — Volume 5" by Azel Ames is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This book delves into the journey of the Mayflower, focusing on the experiences of its passengers and crew during their significant voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to establish a new settlement in America. It captures the hardships of travel by sea during that period, particularly emphasizing the living conditions, provisions, and daily struggles of the Pilgrims. In this detailed narrative, Ames examines various aspects of life aboard the Mayflower, including how quarters were assigned to passengers, the challenges of cooking with limited facilities, and the issues related to food provisions. The text reveals that the passengers endured overcrowding, unsanitary conditions, and inadequate food supplies, which took a toll on their health. The book also highlights the types of provisions and cargo taken on board, such as foods that didn't require cooking and various essential items needed for the settlement. Through meticulous research and original sources, Ames evokes a vivid picture of the Pilgrims' determination and resilience faced with such daunting circumstances.
