With the help of Dr. Mark J. Larson (Heidelberg Theological Seminary, South Dakota), and Cotton Mather, we explore the lives of John Robinson (1576–1625) and William Brewster (c. 1566–1644) and the unusual path taken by their congregation. These faithful men led the congregationalist church at Leiden which became inter-continental in 1620 when a number of its key members set out for North America aboard the ships Mayflower and Speedwell.
