62, [2] pages. Index. This editon of four hundred copies of A Compendium of the Indian Wars of New England by Genjamin Trumbull was printed in September MDCCCCXXIV at the PRess of Finlay Brothers in Hartford Commecticut. Number 51 to 400 were printed on Georgian antique paper. The number 376 is written in red ink. Most of spine missing, but binding intact. Cover has other wear and soiling. Benjamin Trumbull (Hebron, Connecticut, 19 December 1735 - 2 February 1820 North Haven, Connecticut) was an early American historian and preacher. He graduated from Yale in 1759, and received his theological education under Reverend Eleazer Wheelock, who delivered his ordination sermon in 1760, commending him to the people of North Haven as "not a sensual, sleepy, lazy, dumb dog, that could not bark back." He continued in that charge for nearly sixty years, his preaching being interrupted only by the Revolution, in which he served both as a volunteer and as chaplain. After the war he published a pamphlet sustaining the claim of Connecticut to the Susquehanna purchase, which influenced the decision of congress in her favor. Yale gave him the degree of D.D. in 1796. He published Twelve Discourses on the Divine Origin of the Holy Scriptures (Hartford, 1790); General History of the United States of America (3 vols., Boston, 1765-1810); and Complete History of Connecticut from 1630 till 1713 (2 vols., Hartford, 1797). The manuscript collections from which this history is compiled are in the Yale library. His grandson Lyman Trumbull was a U.S. Senator from Illinois.Trumbull was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society in 1814.[1] AAS holds original copies of over 40 titles related to, or authored by Trumbull, as well as the manuscript of his General History of the United States.The Pequot War was an armed conflict between the Pequot tribe and an alliance of the English colonists of the Massachusetts Bay, Plymouth, and Saybrook colonies and their Native American allies (the Narragansett and Mohegan tribes) which occurred between 1634 and 1638. The Pequots lost the war. At the end, about seven hundred Pequots had been killed or taken into captivity. Hundreds of prisoners were sold into slavery to the West Indies. Other survivors were dispersed. The result was the elimination of the Pequot as a viable polity in what is present-day Southern New England. The colonial authorities classified the tribe as extinct; however, survivors remained in the area and did regain recognition and land along the present-day Thames and Mystic rivers in southeastern Connecticut.In 1675, the Narragansett allied themselves with King Philip and the Wampanoag Sachem, to support the Wampanoag Tribe's efforts to reclaim land in Massachusetts. In the Great Swamp Massacre, a military force of Puritans from Plymouth, Massachusetts Bay, and Connecticut massacred a group of Narragansett, mostly women, children, and elderly men living at an Indian winter camp in the Great Swamp located in present day South Kingstown. Following the massacre, many of the remaining Narragansett retreated deep into the forest and swamp lands in the southern area of the State.…
