Narratives of Captivity Among the Indians of North America is a collection of first-hand accounts of European and American individuals who were taken captive by Native American tribes during the colonial era. The book features anonymous stories from a variety of perspectives, including men, women, and children who were captured and held captive for varying lengths of time. The narratives describe the experiences of these captives, including their interactions with their captors, the conditions of their captivity, and their eventual release or escape. The book offers a unique glimpse into the complex relationships between early European settlers and Native American tribes, as well as the often brutal realities of life in the colonial era. The stories are told in a straightforward and unembellished style, providing a vivid and often harrowing account of life in captivity. Overall, Narratives of Captivity Among the Indians of North America is a valuable historical document that sheds light on an often-overlooked aspect of early American history.A List of Books and Manuscripts on this Subject In The Edward E.
