About this book

In The Last of the Great Wampanoag Indian Sachems, Milton A. Travers recreates the dramatic closing chapter of one of the most devastating conflicts in early American history — King Philip's War. Set in 1676, this meticulously researched narrative traces the final struggle of the Wampanoag people under their leader Metacom, known to the English as King Philip, as they faced the encroaching power of colonial New England. Travers blends historical fidelity with narrative drive, transforming archival sources, letters, and regional lore into a vivid reconstruction of courage, betrayal, and tragedy.

Through Travers's keen historical eye, readers witness the unraveling of a native confederation that once dominated southern New England. He portrays not only the military campaigns but also the human dimension — the anguish of families displaced, the moral conflicts of colonists and converts, and the desperate endurance of a culture fighting for survival. His storytelling refuses simplification, revealing the shared suffering and irreparable loss that would shape the region's destiny.

More than a chronicle of war, The Last of the Great Wampanoag Indian Sachems stands as an elegy for a vanished world. It reminds readers that the foundations of America were laid in both triumph and tragedy — and that the memory of those who fell "north of Plymouth and west of Providence" still echoes across New England's woods and waters
