Explanation and Analysis:

Of Plymouth Plantation is set primarily in the Plymouth Colony in Massachusetts, during early settler colonialism in North America. The majority of the first book contains Bradford's entries documenting the persecution of the Puritans in England and their subsequent flight to Holland (1608-1620). The second book contains the history of the Plymouth settlement, from 1620 to 1646.
