520			_a"Metipom's Hostage: Being a Narrative of Certain Surprising Adventures" by Ralph Henry Barbour is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in the tumultuous period of King Philip's War in the late 1670s and follows the protagonist David Lindall as he navigates the dangers and complexities of life in colonial America, grappling with conflicts between settlers and Native Americans. The opening of the book introduces us to David, who wakes up to find a mysterious red glow illuminating his attic, which leads him to discover that a nearby barn is on fire. As his father and their servant Obid set out to assist, David's longing for adventure becomes evident. This desire sets the stage for the narrative, as David grapples with his growing awareness of the tensions between the colonists and the indigenous Wampanoags led by King Philip. The author skillfully blends historical context with the personal journey of a young man coming of age during a time of unrest, establishing a gripping premise for the reader. Throughout the opening chapters, themes of loyalty, courage, and the inevitability of conflict resonate, providing a clear foundation for the unfolding story.
