    James Rice’s Tales from a Revolution: Bacon’s Rebellion and the Transformation of Early America gives an in depth narrative of Bacon’s Rebellion and how it impacted the other aspects of American history. In doing this, Rice “consulted most of the originals” (xx) and some manuscripts. The diaries and correspondence of the characters drives the narrative and accuracy of this book. The sources are definitely used effectively as it especially benefits the narrative with the direct quotes that are used throughout and is beneficial in knowing that the information is coming from primary sources. These sources fairly represent both sides as they are primary sources and there is only but so much leeway one can have with sources such as the one Rice uses in this book.…

    War between the Indians and the Colonists was unavoidable from the very moment the Pilgrims first set foot on what was to eventually become Massachusetts in 1620. As more and more settlers began arriving over the years, tension between the two began to steadily rise. The settler 's insatiable hunger for land and their increasing mistreatment of the Indians began to break down an already somewhat fragile alliance between the two. The Indians were quickly losing land and their way of life as well to these new settlers and some of them believed the only way to stop this was to go on the offensive and push back them back. The result of this was a short fought war known as King Philip 's War. Though it only lasted a little over a year, it was an exceptionally brutal war that took a huge toll life wise and had a lasting impact on both the English and the Indians for many years to come.…

    To begin with, it is interesting to point out that King Philip’s War is sometimes referred to as the First Indian War because it was one of the most violent events to occur in seventeenth-century Puritan New England, but that title is not necessarily accurate. From 1936 to 1937 the Pequot Indians raged war with settlers of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The conflict began when, seeking to find a new trading partner, the Pequots agreed to give the English…

    King Philip 's War, it was one of the first and bloodiest conflicts between the colonist of New England and the Native Americans, primarily the Wampanoag Indian tribe. There were massive casualties on each side, all of which were caused by fighting and disease. King Philip 's War, had began out of almost forty years of tension between local native tribes of Massachusetts and puritan colonists of Massachusetts. Each side felt as if they had no choice but to remove the other or certain annihilation of their people would inevitably happen. Political leaders on both the Indian and Colonist side reinforce this stance of “It 's them, or us”. This massive fear, and group mentality, lead to unanimous call to action with little or no actual evidence, mainly speculation, assumptions, and…

    At the start of the seventeenth century, Native Americans greeted European settlers with much excitement. They regarded settlers as strange, but were interested to learn about the new tools and weapons Europeans brought with them. The native people were more than accommodating to the settlers, but as time passed, Europeans took advantage of their generosity. “Once these newcomers disembarked and began to feel their way across the continent, they forever altered the course and pace of native development.” Native Americans and Europeans faced many conflicts due to their vast differences in language, religion and culture. European settlers’ inability to understand and respect Native Americans lead to many struggles that would eventually erupt into violent warfare.…
