<span>History is important because it helps us to understand the past which in turn allows us to understand the present. History can provide insight into our cultures of origin as well as cultures we might be less familiar with. History increases cross-cultural awareness and understanding of other cultures we may not know much about. Cross-culture is a reason why"Of Plymouth Plantation", by William Bradford, is important to history and literature. Of Plymouth Plantation, begun in 1630, is significant because it is one of the first histories of the Puritans who voyaged to America. It describes the story of the pilgrims from 1608 in the time period in which they settled in the Dutch Republic on the European mainland through the 1620 Mayflower voyage to the new world. The book includes a list of Mayflower passengers and what happened to them. This is very important in history because it was the voyage to the new world. The Mayflower was a merchant ship that set sail from Plymouth in september 1620. Instead of the cargo being full of wine and dry goods it as full with 102 passengers hoping to start a new life on the other side of the Atlantic. This story gives us insight on the Puritans from the past which gives us insight on their culture, which can now be compared to our culture. </span>
