More about the book
William Apess's eulogy for King Philip, a Wampanoag leader, recontextualizes the narrative of colonial America by honoring Philip's resistance against English settlers. In 1836, Apess argues that Philip's patriotism, military prowess, and honor surpass those of George Washington. The text critiques the injustices faced by Native Americans, highlighting broken treaties and violence inflicted by European settlers. Through this examination, Apess seeks to redeem Philip's legacy as a martyr for his people, challenging the dominant historical perspective.
