Beskrivelse af Tragedies Of The Wilderness
Tragedies of the Wilderness: Or True and Authentic Narratives of Captives is a book published in 1844 by Samuel Gardner Drake. The book presents a collection of true accounts of individuals who were captured by Native American tribes during the colonial period in North America. The narratives describe the experiences of these captives, including their capture, life among the tribes, and eventual release or escape.The book is divided into several sections, each dedicated to a different group of captives. The first section focuses on the captivity of Mary Rowlandson, a Puritan woman who was taken captive during King Philip's War in 1675. Other sections recount the experiences of captives taken by the Mohawks, the Hurons, and the Seneca.Throughout the book, Drake provides historical context for each narrative, describing the conflicts and tensions between Native American tribes and European settlers. He also includes illustrations and maps to help readers better understand the geography and culture of the time.Tragedies of the Wilderness is an important historical document that sheds light on the complex relationships between Native American tribes and European settlers during the colonial period. It provides a unique perspective on the experiences of captives, and offers valuable insights into the cultural and social dynamics of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
