Memory Lands reexamines the violent 17th-century conflict between Native Americans and European settlers known as King Philip’s War. This book brings to light the alternate histories of this Indigenous resistance movement, providing an alternative to the conventional “Pilgrim-centric” narratives of colonial New England.

Author Christine M. DeLucia is a history professor who specializes in the Native American/Indigenous and colonial histories of the Northeast. She will sell and sign copies of Memory Lands ($20, cash or check) at the conclusion of her talk.
