Algonkian is a comic-style book with hand-lettered text that graphically depicts life in New England before the English invasion. Author Bob Eaton created several dozen 40-page "comic" books focused on the New England Indians. In Algonkian we learn about the several New England tribes that shared a language and a culture. We meet Squam and Shomet as small children and watch them grow up to be parents themselves. Along the way we learn about Native American childrearing, hunting, agriculture, warfare, and spirituality. Bob Eaton's artwork opens up a whole new vista on a way of life that was ruthlessly destroyed by self-righteous invaders in only a few generations.

This book traces the development of John Eliot’s mission to the Algonquian-speaking people of Massachusetts Bay, from his arrival in 1631 until his death in 1690. It explores John Eliot’s determination to use the Massachusett dialect of Algonquian, both in speech and in print, as a language of conversion and Christianity. The book analyzes the spoken words of religious conversion and the written transcription of those narratives; it also considers the Algonquian language texts and English language texts which Eliot published to support the mission. Central to this study is an insistence that John Eliot consciously situated his mission within a tapestry of contesting transatlantic and political forces, and that this framework had a direct impact on the ways in which Native American penitents shaped and contested their Christian identities. To that end, the study begins by examining John Eliot’s transatlantic network of correspondents and missionary-supporters in England, it then considers the impact of conversion narratives in spoken and written forms, and ends by evaluating the impact of literacy on praying Indian communities. The study maps the coalescence of different communities that shaped, or were shaped by, Eliot’s seventeenth-century mission.
