"Standish: A Pilgrim's Tale of Love and Courage" In the early 1620s, amidst the backdrop of the Plymouth colony, a tale unfolded that would forever be etched in history. John Alden, one of the brave Pilgrim settlers, embarked on a journey that would test his loyalty and love. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow captured this captivating story in his renowned poem "The Courtship of Miles Standish. " Through vivid illustrations from a 19th-century American edition, we are transported to an era where bravery and romance intertwined. Miles Standish, a valiant figure in this narrative, stands tall as Squanto leads him through unknown lands. This detail from an American lithograph encapsulates their march with an air of mystery and anticipation. Longfellow's words echo through time as he asks us why John Alden doesn't speak for himself. An illustration portrays John Alden contemplating these very words by Longfellow - a moment frozen in time that leaves us pondering the complexities of unrequited love. Priscilla Mullens finds herself wondering why Miles Standish does not woo her directly. In another wood engraving by George Henry Boughton from a late 19th-century edition, Priscilla's curiosity is palpable as she seeks answers from John Alden. As we delve deeper into Longfellow's masterpiece, wood engravings by the brothers Dalziel after drawings by John Gilbert transport us to scenes filled with emotion and longing. These intricate illustrations bring to life every word penned by Longfellow - capturing our hearts along with it. Beyond literature lies another chapter in Standish's legacy - Frank Merriwell Among the Mormons or The Lost Tribe of Israel. This dime novel published in 1896 adds yet another layer to Standish's enduring presence throughout history. Moving forward to more recent times, photographs capture Keith Vaz alongside Bill Morris and Bernie Grant, prominent Labour Party politicians.
