Pilgrim Summer.
Trenouth, Peter
English Journal, v75 n5 p24-26 Sep 1986
Relates the experiences of a teacher's summer working as an "Englishman" on the "Mayflower" II, focusing on questions asked by tourists such as "Where are the other two ships?" Considering the misperceptions of history demonstrated by both young and old Americans, reflects that perhaps there was no "golden age" of education to which we should try to return. (SRT)
