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. When accumulated Indian resentments culminated in the war of 1675, however, the relatively benign intercultural contact of the preceding fifty-five-year period rapidly declined.
New England Frontier: Puritans and Indians 1620-1675, by historian Alden T. Vaughan is an informative book based on some puritans Ideals. Back in 1965, when the book was published many people still had different views upon what occurred in the Puritan and Indian period. Because of this, the purpose of Vaughan, when writing this book was to gather as much information as possible and explain the both sides of the story. His main topic was to give the Puritan image on the relations of the encounters they had with the Native Americans.
