In this adaptation of his adult best-seller, Philbrick demythologizes the Pilgrims and Indians story, offering remarkable insight and shaking up assumptions. The compelling narrative is divided into three sections, covering two generations of English-Indian relations and King Philip's War, which decimated New England's Native population. The text is supported by maps, diagrams, archival reproductions, and photographs of artifacts. Reading list, timeline. Bib., ind.
