To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I am aware that the vast majority of the super- ficial readers of early American history have con- cluded that the Indian tribes of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut were wiped out in a cruel and unprovoked war begun by King Philip in open violation of the treaty his father had made with Governor Carver of the Plymouth Colony; but the man who holds this view cannot have looked into the violations of that treaty by the whites, and takes no account of the long list of aggressions agains...t the natives in violation of the spirit of the treaty if not of its letter. The great cause of that bloody war was the tendency on the part of the colonists to treat the Indians as a sub- ject race to whom they owed no duty, who were in their way, and whom they were at liberty to annoy constantly in every conceivable manner. If they had set out with a determination to arouse the na- tives to declare v/ar, in order that they might use the hostilities thus begun as an excuse for exter- minating them, they could not have succeeded more admirably.
