Book excerpt: A compelling and original recovery of Native American resistance and adaptation to colonial America With rigorous original scholarship and creative narration, Lisa Brooks recovers a complex picture of war, captivity, and Native resistance during the “First Indian War” (later named King Philip’s War) by relaying the stories of Weetamoo, a female Wampanoag leader, and James Printer, a Nipmuc scholar, whose stories converge in the captivity of Mary Rowlandson. Through both a narrow focus on Weetamoo, Printer, and their network of relations, and a far broader scope that includes vast Indigenous geographies, Brooks leads us to a new understanding of the history of colonial New England and of American origins. Brooks’s pathbreaking scholarship is grounded not just in extensive archival research but also in the land and communities of Native New England, reading the actions of actors during the seventeenth century alongside an analysis of the landscape and interpretations informed by tribal history.

Book excerpt: This manuscript, dated 1642, is probably a contemporary copy of Governor John Winthrop's (1587/88-1649) declaration in favor of the magistrates. It has been published in the Proceedings of the AAS, vol. 30 (1920), p. 218-50. The brief was apparently prepared for circulation among the population, many of whom were angered by the undemocratic decision. In the manuscript, Winthrop denied that the negative voice had actually decided the case and listed as proof the votes among the magistrates and deputies present at the time of the tally. The manuscript also contains a history or "breaveate" of the case and the general opinion of the court. Winthrop eventually published a treatise defending the right of the magistrates to a negative voice.
