Summary "Boys' Book of Frontier Fighters" by Edwin L. Sabin is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the daring exploits of American pioneers and soldiers as they fought against indigenous tribes during the westward expansion of the United States. With tales of courage, strategic battles, and significant historical figures such as Captain Benjamin Church during King Philip's War, it explores themes of bravery and survival in the face of adversity. At the start of the book, the author introduces Captain Benjamin Church, a renowned Indian fighter known for his fierce engagement in conflicts during the late 17th century. The narrative details his relentless pursuit of the Pokanokets and the capture of Chief Annawan, who was a key figure in King Philip’s War. Captain Church's character is depicted as steadfast and resourceful, highlighting a gripping encounter that showcases his gritty determination as he navigates a dangerous swamp, battles formidable foes, and ultimately captures his adversary, illustrating the complex dynamics of colonial America during this tumultuous period. The opening chapters set the stage for a series of heroic tales that celebrate the spirit of frontier fighters and their roles in shaping American history.
