  2. Cranberries, the final flourish

    Special to The Times
    CRANBERRY red is the Tiffany touch on the Thanksgiving plate. The jewel-like quality of the color adds just the right accent to the dressiest meal of the year. Just about everything else on the plate starts out one hue and morphs. Cranberries keep...

  3. American original

    Every red-blooded American knows that when it comes to Thanksgiving, cranberries are as American as apple pie. Contrary to popular belief, cranberries didn't come over on the Mayflower, though, but were a staple of Native Americans long before the first...

  4. 'American Experience: We Shall Remain'

    Of the many elephants occupying the room that is the history of the United States, none is larger than the official mistreatment of the Native American by the new neighbors from over the water. Like slavery, it is a subject at once much discussed and somehow fundamentally ignored, and because the story has been so sensationalized on the one hand and romanticized on the other, there is a continual desire to tell it right.

  6. The view from Jacksonville

    Back in the day, sailing to America could be traumatic stuff—when, that is, it wasn't incredibly dull. Anything might go wrong, and frequently did. There were enemy warships, hurricanes and, not least, the delights of dysentery (or "the bloody flux,...

  7. First Africans arrive in Virginia

    In the history of the American people, many places are precious. But none reaches back so far -- or did so much to shape the nation's identity -- as the first permanent English settlement at Jamestown. Twelve years after the first colonists landed in 1607 -- and a year before the Pilgrims stepped ashore at Plymouth Rock -- this small, struggling enterprise on the banks of the James River witnessed an arrival that would underscore its historical significance still further. But no one in August 1619 understood the consequences of joining a few hundred white, European, mostly English settlers with what colony secretary John Rolfe famously described as "20. and odd negroes."
