			        		&quot;Eminently readable....Bourne makes a lively job of it. Actors on both sides of the buckskin curtain come alive as engaging, fallible human beings, not cardboard stereotypes....A good and largely readable rendition of a cautionary tale that cannot be heard too often by Americans, especiallyafter Vietnam, Grenada, and Panama.&quot;--James Axtell, New York Times Book Review&quot;Lively, accessible, and thought-provoking. With the aid of maps and illustrations, it is about as clear and coherent as it can be.&quot;--The Washington Times&quot;A detailed look at both sides of this conflict in the colorful manner familiar to readers of the American Heritage Series.&quot;--Kirkus Reviews&quot;Excellent account of racial politics. A well-written and well-researched expedition into the area concerning the destruction of that &apos;peculiar social harmony.&apos;&quot;--Lee L. Schreiber, Temple University&quot;This is a readable book about a major human tragedy, and Bourne provides much food for thought on the nature of such conflict. The phrase &quot;a welcome addition to the literature&quot; is well worn by reviewers, but in the case of The Red King&apos;s Rebellion, it seems an apt assessment.&quot;--Colin G.Calloway, American Indian Culture and Research Journal&quot;An excellent supplement that provides a taste of the conflict of cultures.&quot;--C. James Taylor, University of South Carolina&quot;A great book. The story is compelling, the writing forceful, the analysis dead-on.&quot;--Larry Cebula, Eastern Washington University

    The Pilgrims and Puritans deprive the Indians of his land.
  

*by K***G on April 8, 2004*

This would be a great read around Thankgiving.  When the Pilgrims first landed by Plymouth Rock, the native Indians helped the English settlers survive the winters.  Cooperation between the Indian chiefs and the settlers resulted in survival in the new land.  Fifty years later, the settlers took away the land of the Indians, sold Indian women and children into slavery and killed off most of the male Indians.  How could peaceful coexistance lead to genocide of the Indians.  Bourne explains this in his book about King Philip's War and the death and destuction of the native Indian tribes.The author's contention is that Native Americans and the settlers could have led peaceful lives in New England.  The influx of settlers led to the loss of the Indian's lives and land.  Bourne argues that this should not have happened.  What struck me is how the Pilgrims and Puritans (both religious fanatics) justified their wars and genocide because the Indians were heathens.  Even if the Indians had converted to Christianity, they were still fair game in this war.  This history is what should be taught at Thanksgiving.That said, this book is only for the academic.  The style of writing would not incite interest among the general population even though the topic is important in American history.

    The Jordan Plantation?????
  

*by E***N on May 24, 2005*

Quite a bit of useful data on colonial New England.However, where is mention of the Jordan Plantationof Spurwink and Scarborough Maine, that was destroyed in the King Philip's War 1675-1678? It was founded by Rev Robert Jordan,minister of Spurwink, Casco, and Saco, Maine, and there is a book, missing from the bibliography.....The Jordan Memorial.... by Tristram Frost Jordan Picton Press, Camden ME.
