Before the United States, there was a dangerous new world. Blood was never far away. First published in the early nineteenth century, Henry Trumbull's History Of The Discovery Of America traces the arc from the arrival of the Mayflower pilgrims and the founding of the Plymouth colony settlers in 1620 through decades of uneasy coexistence and violent confrontation in 17th century New England. Focusing on the most notable clashes between pilgrims and Native Americans, it offers a continuous narrative of colonial America 1620-1669 and the New England Indian wars, then turns westward to recount the stunning defeats of Generals Braddock, Harmar and St. Clair in early American military history. At once a vivid native American conflict narrative and a reflection of its own time, it remains vital background for understanding later struggles, including the origins of King Philip's War history. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This new presentation invites casual readers of colonial American history, colonial history students and homeschool early America programmes to encounter Trumbull's era on its own terms, while classic-literature collectors will value it as a tangible link to the formative narratives of the New World.
