Letters of Samuel Lee and Samuel Sewall Relating to New England and the Indians is a historical book published in 1912 that compiles letters exchanged between two prominent figures in colonial Massachusetts during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Samuel Lee was a Puritan minister and missionary who worked among the Native American tribes of New England, while Samuel Sewall was a judge and politician who played a key role in the Salem Witch Trials.The book offers a unique perspective on the relationship between the English colonizers and the indigenous peoples of New England, as seen through the eyes of two men who had vastly different experiences with the Native Americans. Lee's letters describe his efforts to convert the Indians to Christianity and his interactions with various tribes, while Sewall's letters discuss his dealings with the Indians in his role as a judge and his opinions on their culture and way of life.Through these letters, readers can gain insights into the complex and often fraught relationships between the English colonizers and the Native Americans, as well as the attitudes and beliefs of the people involved. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of colonial America and the interactions between different cultures during that time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
