Several contemporary accounts of life in Plymouth Colony have become both vital primary historical documents and literary classics. ''[[Of Plymouth Plantation|Of Plimoth Plantation]]'' by William Bradford and ''[[Mourt's Relation]]'' by Bradford, Edward Winslow, and others and published by [[George Morton]] are both accounts written by ''Mayflower'' passengers which provide much of the information we have today regarding the trans-Atlantic voyage and early years of the settlement. Benjamin Church wrote several accounts of King Philip's War, including ''Entertaining Passages Relating to Philip's War'', which remained popular for a century; one edition was illustrated by [[Paul Revere]] in 1772. One of the most famous memoirs in American letters is [[Mary Rowlandson]]'s ''A True History of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson, or The Sovereignty and Goodness of God'' (1677), a penetrating and deeply religious account of how she was captured, her children murdered and herself held hostage by Indians as part of their warfare against the whites during of King Philip's War.<ref>Philbrick (2006) pp 75, 288, 357-358; Mitchell Breitwieser, ''American Puritanism and the Defense of Mourning: Religion, Grief, and Ethnology in Mary White Rowlandson's Captivity Narrative'' (1990).</ref> Later works, such as "[[The Courtship of Miles Standish]]" by [[Henry Wadsworth Longfellow]], have provided a romantic and partially fictionalized account of life in Plymouth Colony.<ref>Philbrick (2006) pp 354</ref>
