The History of Thanksgiving

After a long and arduous journey, the Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower reached their final destination at Plymouth Rock on December 11, 1620. A year after their arrival, the first American Thanksgiving took place to celebrate a plentiful harvest after a long and bitter winter. The three-day feast included ninety one American Indians, whom many believe the Pilgrims would not have survived without. Several years later there were many discussions over the official day of Thanksgiving, including controversy over its formal date. From 1939 to 1941, Franklin D. Roosevelt, in an effort to lengthen Christmas shopping, proclaimed Thanksgiving as the third Thursday in November. Unfortunately for online sellers, the lengthened shopping season was quickly overturned. The official date was changed in 1941, when Thanksgiving was sanctioned by Congress as a legal holiday to take place on the fourth Thursday in November of every year.
