In this popular version of the History of King Philip, John Abbott writes a narrative on the career of Metacomet, son of Chief Massasoit of the Wampanoag. Collected from many original sources, Abbott traces the events that led to the uprising later known as King Philip?s war. Metacomet tried to maintain his father?s peaceful policies with the Colonists, but they pushed ever farther into tribal lands and tried to impose their laws on the native people. Resistance to the demands for more food, land and submission to English law escalated into open revolt. Uniting the Nipmuck, Narragansett and Wampanoag tribes, Metacomet led a doomed effort to preserve the Indian way of life.
