Wheaton Wood
People who want original research on the #Wapanoag & other indigenous people and their intersection with Europeans in New England. I highly recommend Our Beloved Kin by Lisa Brooks. It is subtitled A New History of King Philip's War but it is soo much more. You will look at the lives of your ancestors differently, I promise. #thanksgiving #bookodons #genedons #genealogy #KingPhilipsWar

Happy #Thanksgiving! If you'd like to learn more about 17th Century New England history, the truth of the first Thanksgiving, and the rarely taught devastating Metacom's War, I recommend the highly readable "Mayflower" by Nathaniel Philbrick. It's well researched and reads as a narrative, rather than densely academic. #KnowYourHistory!
