Description
Set in fledgling Plymouth Colony, Parting Ways chronicles the events leading up to and during King Philips War, the first widespread conflict between the Native Americans and the English colonists. It is a war brought on by mistrust and deception between the two factions, as the Natives see their hunting and fishing grounds shrinking due to the insatiable demands for more land by the ever-increasing white population. Tensions mount until they culminate in a war that spreads death and destruction throughout all New England. It is also a story of a bond forged by a young white girl and the son of a mighty chief by a chance encounter during a raging hurricane. Their lives become intertwined as they are caught up in the inevitable clash of cultures between their peoples, but the legacy of their meeting will span the ages.
