An Historical Account of the Doings and Sufferings of the Christian Indians in New England in the Years 1675-1677 is a book written by Daniel Gookin that provides a detailed historical account of the Christian Indians in New England during the years 1675-1677. The book covers the events leading up to the King Philip's War, which was a conflict between the Native American tribes and the English colonists in New England. The Christian Indians were a group of Native Americans who had converted to Christianity and were living in the English settlements. They were caught in the middle of the conflict, as they were seen as traitors by the Native American tribes and were also mistrusted by the English colonists. The book provides a comprehensive account of the Christian Indians' experiences during the war, including their struggles to maintain their faith and loyalty to both sides. It also covers their sufferings, including the loss of their homes, families, and communities. Daniel Gookin was a Puritan minister and a colonial administrator who had close relationships with the Christian Indians. He wrote this book as a way to document their experiences and to show the English colonists the importance of treating the Native Americans with respect and fairness. Overall, An Historical Account of the Doings and Sufferings of the Christian Indians in New England in the Years 1675-1677 is an important historical document that sheds light on the experiences of the Christian Indians during a tumultuous period in New England's history.1836. Transactions and collections of the American Antiquarian Society Volume II. This volume was impartially drawn by one well acquainted with that affair, and presented unto the right Honorable the Corporation residing in London, appointed by the King's most excellent majesty for promoting the gospel among the Indians in America. In preparing this brief sketch of the principal incidents in the life of the author, the Publishing Committee consulted the original authorities cited by the American biographical writers, and such other sources of information as were known to them, for the purposes of insuring greater accuracy; but the account is almost wholly confined to the period of the author's residence in New England, and is necessarily given in the most concise manner.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
