Ep. 33: John Underhill, Pt. 4: His Military Service in New Netherland


Listen Later

John Underhill lived enough for two men while serving the New England colonies. It was not enough. In the 1640s he left his English responsibilities behind and began an aggressive military campaign against many of the native groups located in New Netherland. Like his time in the service of the English Puritans, this was a bloody, violent time. John Underhill is the embodiment of that certain type of person almost every growing and expanding society needs. Those willing to do the dirty work behind the scenes. His hands would be blood red once again.
