King Philip and the War with the Colonists (Hardcover)

In his day, King Philip was regarded by white people as an evil man, serving the purpose of Satan against the New England settlers. But when we come to understand the Indians' side of things, we can appreciate that Philip was actually a patriot among his people. Pushed to the limit, he was trying desperately to preserve their lives, their lands, their dignity, and honor as free men and women. -- Alvin M. Josephy, Jr.
