Discover the incredible story of one of American history's least known, yet most compelling, figures as it unfolds in The Legend of Squanto. This Focus on the Family radio theatre drama is more than just a tale about an honest man who triumphed over tragedy. It is also a tribute to honor, integrity, and the God-given ability to look beyond the color of one's skin . . . and into the heart.

Customer Reviews
Poor Quality
The story is great! Fantastic voice tallent as well. However, the quality is lacking. At the end of every chapter & beginning of the next, it skips or cuts off part of the dialogue. Amazon did send me a replacement copy, but it seems to have the same problems. Something no doubt in the production of these CD's. It's too bad really. So if you can deal with this flaw, I would encourage you buy it anyway because it is a good story. If you don't feel that you should support faulty merchandise, I applaud that too. Maybe Focus on the Family will figure this out and fix it.
Excellent History Lesson
This is an excellent chronicle of the life of Squanto, an American Indian who is used by God to save the lives of the pilgrims. This compelling account will be hard to stop listening to. It's perfect for playing the week prior to Thanksgiving. It traces Squanto's life from a young child, to his being taken to Europe as a slave. As you will discover, Squanto's difficult life was a blessing in disguise. He didn't let his mistreatment by a few mean-spirited, white-men taint his view of all white-men in America. His command of the English language -- the result of years in Europe -- and his care and devotion to the pilgrims was nothing short of miraculous.
The quality of Focus on the Family Radio Theater presentations is unrivaled -- EXCELLENT!!!! (one person mentioned flaws in the audio -- we experienced non of this and have listened to the cd on two different cd players)
You will love listening to this dramatization!

History comes alive
Excellent quality production! It is refeshing to listen to truthful history, with both white men and Native American shown as people who can be be either good or bad: no generalizations here. What I enjoyed immensely also is the fact that there is no gratuitous anti-Catholic sentiment: the priests and monks who helped Squanto in Spain are described as good, loving Chritian men by an English Protestant in the story. Great family listening! Kudos to Focus on the Family.
