The book ''Bicentenary Of The Burning Of Providence In 1676: Defense Of The Rhode Island System Of Treatment Of The Indians, And Of Civil And Religious Liberty'' was written by Zachariah Allen and published in 1876. The book commemorates the 200th anniversary of the burning of Providence, Rhode Island, by Native American tribes during King Philip’s War in 1676. The book focuses on defending the Rhode Island system of treatment of the Native Americans during this time, which was known for its relatively fair and peaceful approach compared to other colonies. The author argues that the Rhode Island system was based on respect for individual rights and religious freedom, which made it a more just and humane way to deal with the Native Americans. The book also covers the importance of civil and religious liberty and their role in the founding of the United States. The author highlights the contributions of Rhode Island’s founder, Roger Williams, who advocated for the separation of church and state and the protection of individual rights. Overall, ''Bicentenary Of The Burning Of Providence In 1676'' provides a historical account of the events surrounding the burning of Providence and offers a defense of the Rhode Island system of treatment of the Native Americans and the principles of civil and religious liberty.An Address Delivered Before The Rhode Island Historical Society, April 10, 1876.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
