for bibliography

I have in my possession what has to be an extremely little known work which includes some interesting information about King Philip and the war:

Coolidge, William W., et al. Local Indians A Collection of Three Papers Presented by Members of the Fall River Historical Society on the Subject of Local Indians, Fall River Historical Society, 1930-1933.

And this is the entire bibliographical information available in the book, which includes a useful bibliography that includes the full reference of the Church book:

Church, Thomas, Esq. The History of the Great Indian War of 1675 and 1676, commonly called Philip's War (New York: H. Dayton, 1860).

P.S. I was born one street away from King Philip Avenue in Somerset, Ma. There is also a King Philip Street in Fall River.Jeffrey Scott Bernstein 17:27, 9 April 2008 (CDT)

please add the Coolidge book to the bibliog. The Church book is there with a link to the full text on google. It seems odd that people celebrate the enemy warriors....why is that? is it recent or long-standing? Richard Jensen 18:55, 9 April 2008 (CDT)
