A Narrative of the Captivity and Adventures of John Tanner is a memoir written by John Tanner, a US interpreter who spent thirty years living among the Native American tribes in the interior of North America. The book details Tanner's capture as a young boy by the Shawnee tribe, his subsequent adoption into the tribe, and his eventual escape and return to his white family. Tanner then goes on to recount his experiences living among various Native American tribes, including the Ojibwa, Sioux, and Pawnee, and the challenges he faced as a white man living among them. The book provides valuable insights into Native American culture and customs, as well as the complex relationships between Native Americans and white settlers during the 19th century. Overall, A Narrative of the Captivity and Adventures of John Tanner is a fascinating and informative account of one man's unique experiences living among Native American tribes in the American frontier.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
