Caleb has been studying and researching the history of the Mayflower, the
Pilgrims, and early Plymouth Colony for fifteen years. He has edited and
published several books, including the massive 1173-page reference book, The
Complete Works of the Mayflower Pilgrims (Vancouver, 2003), The Mayflower
and Her Passengers (Xlibris, 2005), and he edited the most recent edition of

He has also been on the forefront of Mayflower genealogical research, and

Hopkins (The American Genealogist 73:161-171) and the discovery of the
English origins of Peter Browne (The American Genealogist 79:161-178). He
