KING PHILIP'S WAR - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bride Media International, Inc. in collaboration with KPW Partners, announced the release of King Philip’s war, an educational video examining the causes and effects of the America’s first great Indian War. King Philip’s War, which lasted from June of 1675 until about August of the following year, involved most of what is now New England and was the bloodiest war per capita in this country’s history.

The 26-minute video is based upon the best-selling book, King Philip’s War: America’s Forgotten Conflict by Eric Schultz and Michael Tougias. Both authors provide narration and historical commentary for the film. Also featured are Russell Peters, former head of the Wampanoag Council, Ella Sekatow, Narragansett historian, Linda Coombs and Nancy Eldridge, Wampanoag historians, and Richard Pickering, historian formerly of the Plimoth Plantation.

By 1675, friction between the Wampanoag Tribe of Southeastern New England and the English colonists had reached the boiling point. On June 20, Metacom, the great Wampanoag chief, known as King Philip to the English, ordered an attack on the settlement at Swansea, Massachusetts, precipitating a war that destroyed his tribe and nearly bankrupted the Plymouth and Massachusetts Bay colonies. When the war ended in 1676 with the death of Philip, 3000 Native Americans and 800 English had been killed, a staggering mortality given the population of that time.

Although the war has recently become the focus of renewed interest due to several excellent books on the subject, Native Americans and historians of the period have long felt that it has never been recognized as one of the most significant seminal events in American history.

Bride Media International, Inc. is a producer of high quality educational films and
CD-ROMs entitled the Bride Digital Classics. Its titles are distributed through most educational channels including Films for the Humanities and Sciences in Princeton, NJ, and the prestigious Columbia University Press.
