Description
""The History of the Pequot War and Battle of Stonington"" is a historical account of the Pequot War, a conflict between the Pequot tribe and English colonists in 1637. The book, written by George W. Lewis and originally published in 1893, provides a detailed chronicle of the events leading up to the war, the battles that took place, and the aftermath of the conflict. Lewis draws upon a variety of primary sources, including letters, journals, and legal documents, to provide a comprehensive and accurate account of the war. He also includes detailed descriptions of the key players involved in the conflict, including the Pequot leaders and the English commanders.The book begins with an overview of the early interactions between the Pequot tribe and the English colonists, including the establishment of trading relationships and the tensions that arose as the colonists expanded their territory. Lewis then describes the events that led to the outbreak of war, including the murder of English traders by the Pequot and the subsequent retaliation by the colonists.The bulk of the book is devoted to a detailed description of the battles that took place during the war, including the Siege of Mystic Fort and the Battle of Fairfield. Lewis provides a blow-by-blow account of these conflicts, including the strategies employed by both sides and the key turning points in each battle.The book concludes with an examination of the aftermath of the war, including the impact on the Pequot tribe and the long-term effects on relations between Native Americans and English colonists. Overall, ""The History of the Pequot War and Battle of Stonington"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the early history of the United States and the interactions between Native American tribes and European colonizers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
