Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A sweeping, award-winning work of history - the anti-colonial struggle for North America, retold from the perspective of an Indian queen. In the mid-to-late 17th century, Metacom - the Wampanoag chief known to the English as "King Philip" - led Indigenous peoples of North America in resistance against English colonial rule. This conflict, known as King Philip's War, was the first large-scale war fought on North American soil after the arrival of Europeans. Departing from the conventional framework of war history - which tends to focus on male military leaders and territorial disputes - this book re-narrates the conflict through three marginalized perspectives: How did the authority and actions of an Indigenous female leader, who has been largely glossed over in mainstream accounts, challenge the colonizers' assumptions about gender hierarchies? Was James Printer, a Native interpreter educated at Harvard in the Western tradition, a cross-cultural mediator or a traitor to his tribe? And how did the captivity narrative of Mary Rowlandson, a Puritan woman taken captive during the war, subvert colonial discourse while also exposing anxieties about gender identity? This war between Christian and Indigenous civilizations not only reveals deep-seated conflicts over land, law, gender, and worldviews, but also lays bare the inner turmoil of individuals caught between dual cultural identities. 17""""-- This item is printed on demand.
