Thanksgiving Day is the most authentic American holiday among the national holidays in the United States, and it is most closely related to the early history of the United States. In 1620, immigrants, or Puritans, sailed to the United States by may flower, looking for a place where they could have freedom of belief. After two months of sea bumps, they arrived in what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts in the cold November.
In their first winter, more than half of the settlers died of hunger or epidemics. Those who survived began to sow in the first spring. All summer, they waited anxiously for the arrival of the lumberjack, because they knew that their lives and the future of the colony depended on the coming harvest. At last, the field got an unexpected harvest. Therefore, people decided to set a day to thank God. Many years later, the President of the United States declared the fourth Thursday of 1 1 month as Thanksgiving Day. Thanksgiving celebrations continue to this day.
