Red King's Rebellion: Racial Politics in New England, 1675-1678 by Bourne, Russell Format: Hardcover with Dust JacketPublished by Atheneum, 1990 "The Red King's Rebellion," fought more than three hundred years ago between the Algonquian peoples and New England settlers, was in per-capita terms the bloodiest war in our nation's history. Before the conflict ended, over 9,000 people were dead (two-thirds of them Native Americans), and homelessness, starvation, and economic hardship plagued the descendents of both races for generations to come. In this fascinating book, Russell Bourne examines the epic struggle from both sides, seeking to explain how the biracial harmony that once reigned--when the Plymouth Colony's neighboring Wampanoags, under the stately Massasoit (King Philip's father), shared their corn with desperate settlers--could degenerate into such mistrust and hatred. More than just a war, Bourne shows how it was a simultaneous rebellion on many fronts against inequalities practiced by white settlers, and demonstrates how it constituted a massive and tragic breakdown of colonial civilization.Product image is for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product offered for sale.
