What is Thanksgiving Day?
Thanksgiving Day is an official public holiday that starts a range of winter celebrations. Americans usually celebrate it on the fourth Thursday of November. It dates back to the period of the first English settlers who arrived to the new continent. The settlers appeared to be mainly Puritan Protestants who fled from the persecution of the Anglican Church.
In December 1620 they reached the land. Food supplies were running low, nature was unfavorable. That’s why the settlers lost more than half of their fellows because there was a severe famine. Later, an Indian named Tisquantum or Squanto taught the newcomers to plant crops and acquainted them with the peculiarities of fishing and hunting in America. After the Pilgrims harvested their crops, they organized a celebration to thank God and Indians for a problem-free year.
