Two books I just put on my reading list, thanks to my friend Rich Holsuch: “Our Beloved Kin: A New History of King Philip’s War” by Lisa
Brooks and “Memory Lands: King Philips War and the Place of Violence in
the Northeast” by Christine M. Delucia
"Both authors write from the authority of their own
Native American lens... a belief system under which all animate and inanimate
objects are beings with palpable spirits. That includes lakes and ponds and
streams, mountains and swamps and high, lonesome glacial-erratic boulders,
beavers and bears and deer, insects and worms and underworld serpents..."
