Mary Rowlandson lived through King Phillip’s war that took place in the years of 1675-1676, which concerned the colonists and the American Indians. The Wampaneag Indians took her and her children captive. While a prisoner, Mary Rowlandson traveled some 150 miles, from Lancaster to Menamaset then north to Northfield and across the Connecticut River to meet with King Philip/Metacomet himself, sachem of the Wampaneags. Next she traveled up into southwestern New Hampshire, south to Menamaset, and north to Mount Wachusett. Rowlandson, being a puritan, believed everything was part of God’s great plan.
