Great Migration of Puritans from England to New England (1620–1643)
My interest in genealogy at the time made me aware of this Great Migration. I didn't realize others had used the same phrase.

Highly recommend "The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration." Nonfiction that shares the stories of three African Americans who migrated from the South -- Mississippi to Chicago, Florida to Harlem and Louisiana to California. Enjoyed this book so much that I convinced the Friends of the Library to purchase a "Book Club in a Bag." BCB is 12 books plus a handout which includes discussion questions -- available for 6 week checkout to anyone who lives in my county. If you read this let me know what you think.
