In contrast to most accounts of Puritan-Indian relations, New
England Frontier argues that the first two generations of Puritan
settlers were neither generally hostile toward their Indian
neighbors nor indifferent to their territorial rights. Rather,
American Puritans-especially their political and religious
leaders-sought peaceful and equitable relations as the first step
in molding the Indians into neo-Englishmen. With a new
introduction, this third edition affords the reader a clear,
balanced overview of a complex and sensitive area of American
history. "Vaughan has exhaustively examined the records and written
a book of indispensable value to any student of colonial New
England."-New York Times Book Review Alden T. Vaughan, Professor
Emeritus of History at Columbia University is the author or editor
of numerous books, including The Puritan Tradition in America,
1620-1730, New England's Prospect, and Puritans among the Indians.
