Overview

'On the 27th of the sixth month, called August, 1725, my husband and all our men-servants being abroad, eleven Indians, armed with tomahawks and guns, who had some time before been skulking about the fields, and watching an opportunity of our men's absence, came furiously into the house...' Thus begins the story of the captivity of Elizabeth Hanson, 'taken in substance from her own mouth' by the English Quaker Samuel Bownas. This book contains the complete text of Bownas's 1760 edition, with an introduction and notes designed to explain the background to this extraordinary true story.
