Native bookshelf: Colonization and the Wampanoag Story by Linda Coombs
The full picture of how the earliest colonists interacted with the Native Americans they encountered is clouded by the myths constructed by those writing history.

Linda Coombs (Wampanoag Tribe of Aquinnah) offers the perspective from the tribe that greeted the Pilgrims in Race to the Truth: Colonization and the Wampanoag Story for both young readers and adults. She is an author with extensive experience as a tribal historian.

The book by Coombs offers insights about, among other things, the first Thanksgiving.
