True Story of the Lost Shackle: Or Seven Years with the Indians is a non-fiction book written by Owen P. Dabney. The book is a personal account of the author's experience as a captive of the Comanche Indians in the mid-19th century. Dabney was a young man when he was taken captive by the Comanche tribe and was held captive for seven years. During his captivity, he was forced to adapt to the ways of the tribe and learn their language and customs. The book provides a detailed account of his experiences, including the brutal treatment he received at the hands of his captors, his attempts to escape, and his eventual release. The title of the book refers to a shackle that Dabney was forced to wear during his captivity, which he lost and was never able to recover. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life of a captive among the Comanche Indians and is a valuable historical document for anyone interested in the history of the American West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
