    Francis presents the two opposing perspectives of the Native Americans and colonists without labeling either one good or evil and instead accurately lays out reasons that both sides are fighting each other. The novel begins by introducing the narrator Langdon Towne from Kittery, Maine as an aspiring artist who faces disapproval from his father from a suspension from Harvard who joins the Roger’s Rangers after fleeing arrest. Towne joins Roger in the 1759 military skirmish against the hostile Native Americans located near St. Francis at the Canadian border who have been terrorizing New England settlements with the French support. “ All my life long I had heard tales of Number Four; for it was at this very spot, always, that the St. Francis Indians, coming down from the north, crossed the Connecticut and headed eastward to raid the settlements. On their homeward journey, too, they made straight for Number Four with captives and booty: then turned north, up the Connecticut, on the long trail to the Cohase Intervals and far-off St. Francis.”

  • The Relationship Between The Pilgrims And Native Americans

    188 Words  | 1 Pages

    There is more to the story of the Pilgrims and the Native Americans than the time before the First Thanksgiving, the Pilgrims’ struggles did not cease to exist when they came together with the local Pokanoket tribe and feasted on that autumn day. The relationship between the Pilgrims and the natives did not run smoothly forever and there is not an explanation taught to why the peace suddenly disappeared. Philbrick’s thesis revolves around the fact that although American history is taught in schools, there is a focus solely on the time of that first Thanksgiving and there is a gap until the American Revolution. This gap, according to Philbrick, is an important one, with King Philip’s war showing that there was a large piece of information missing

When ma is just trying to give some children a little bit of stew one of the mothers is very angry and ashamed that someone else is feeding her child (Steinbeck 253-259). This shows how Weedpatch camp runs much more smoothly; if someone is in need they can go to the camp director to feed their kids instead of having to be ashamed of someone else feeding their children. It's also a much more open environment where everyone seems like family or old friends as soon as you meet the, "Seems funny.

To illustrate, Jeannette tied in the concepts of the British East India Company and the West Indies slave trade. She also touched on the idea of indentured serevants coming accords the ocean, fleeing persecution in England, working the lowest jobs in America.

    The Famous Ride of Paul Revere Paul Revere is known for his famous ride through Charlestown, Virginia on April eighteenth, 1775 at midnight. There are many stories that have been published about this famous ride, but many are inaccurate. “Paul Revere’s Ride,” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is not a credible source of information because Revere does not do the same things within these two pieces of literature, the British’s actions are not the same in the poem and the letter, and Revere is not alone on this famous night. Longfellow does not match his poem up with the true actions of Paul Revere.
