Cambridge Cameos contains forty-four sketches from the period 1651 to 1686 that combine good stories, intriguing personalities, and incidents involving mostly ordinary Cambridge people. They are based on thousands of original documents; virtually all primary sources with any bearing on the early history of Cambridge. Drawing on his vast knowledge of Middlesex County families and on his equally vast experience in the town and court records of that county, Roger Thompson has composed a number of delightful vignettes of early residents of the town of Cambridge.

By Christopher C. Child, Patricia Law Hatcher, and Kelvin L. Meyers

In this 1841 publication, Young has gathered a number of lengthy documents covering the history of the Pilgrim Church in Scrooby and Leiden, the transfer of part of that congregation to New England in the 1620s, and the early history of the new plantation at Plymouth. Narratives were composed by William Bradford, Edward Winslow, and Robert Cushman, all of whom were participants in the events portrayed.
