Plymouth colony : narratives of english settlement and native resistance from the mayflower to king philip's war / Lisa Brooks, Kelly Wisecup.

Summary:

"Plymouth Colony brings together for the first time fascinating first-hand narratives written by English settlers-Mourt's Relation, the classic account of the colony's first year; Governor William Bradford's masterful Of Plimouth Plantation; Edward Winslow's Good News from New England; the heterodox Thomas Morton's irreverent challenge to Puritanism New English Canaan; and Mary Rowlandson's landmark captivity narrative The Sovereignty and Goodness of God-with a selection of carefully chosen documents (deeds, patents, letters, speeches) that illuminate the intricacies of Anglo-Native diplomacy and exchange, the complex role of Christian Indians, and the legacy of Massasoit, Weetamoo, Metacom ("King Philip"), and other Wampanoag leaders who faced the ongoing incursion into their lands of strangers from beyond the sea"-- Provided by publisher.
