The First Last Stand: The Bloody Climax and Lasting Legacy of America's First War

By William Briggs

OUTNUMBERED. OUTFOUGHT. OUTGENERALED.

Piercce's Fight: The true story of a forgotten battle in an almost-forgotten war.

In 1676, a company of colonial militia walked into a Native American ambush and were annihilated. It was the greatest Native victory and English defeat in America's first and bloodiest war. The peace between the Puritans and the Natives, that had endured since the arrival of the Mayflower, was shattered and reduced to ashes and blood. Policies to eliminate the native population, acquire their land and enslave them by the thousands over the next two centuries took root in King Philip's War.

In a new way of looking at our shared history, re-examination of The First Last Stand sheds greater understanding of how Anglo and Native American relations were changed forever by King Philip's War.
