Reviews
"Fascinating."-Boston Globe Boston Globe "Most histories of Indian-white relations in colonial Massachusetts end with the New England colonists' victory over Metacomet (King Philip) in 1676. Daniel R. Mandell's history begins only after the Indians have lost... Mandell's meticulous study demonstrates that, contrary to popular belief, the losers of King Philip's War did not disappear from the region. Not only did Indians survive but they continued to play a role in the area's economy and society."-Journal of American History Journal of American History "The comparison of native communities over the nearly one hundred years following King Philip's War makes this book worthy of the reader's attention... A most important contribution to a reassessment of Indian survival in the Northeast."-William and Mary Quarterly William and Mary Quarterly
