Though there is no real evidence that turkey was served at thePilgrim's first thanksgiving, but through ages it became anindispensable part of the Thanksgiving tradition. The tradition of turkeyis rooted in the 'History Of Plymouth Plantation', written by WilliamBradford some 22 years after the actual celebration.
