Fighting and Praying in Colonial Native America
What did Native peoples do when confronted by European settlement in North America? The changing balance of power between Native Americans and European colonists is one of the biggest stories of the 17th century. That tense and constantly shifting relationship provided the context for almost everything that happened in American history before the Revolution. What were the sources of those conflicts? How did both sides try to appease one another? When and why did cooperation break out or break down? Who had the advantage in wars like the Pequot War, King Philip’s War, and the Yamassee War? Who had the advantage in times of peace? And how does Christianity and the urge to save souls affect Native-European relations across North America?
