Ep. 42: The Pequots, Pt. 8: The Anticipation of Pequot Aggression: English Diplomacy in the Wake of the Success of Roger Williams


Listen Later

With the success of Roger Williams, the magistrates of Massachusetts Bay took the lead role in securing not just the neutrality of the Narragansetts in the coming war with the Pequots. They took the lead in securing Narragansett support. Full support on both offensive and defensive actions. Thus securing not only a powerful ally in the war to come, but also ensuring Boston and Plymouth were well protected. The war would be fought in distant Connecticut and not where the agitators lived. In this episode we'll find out how this change of heart occurred within the Narragansett camp?
