Beskrivelse

John Jewitt, a blacksmith turned captive, shares his harrowing survival tale from 1803 to 1806 among the Nuu-chah-nulth people of Nootka Sound, Canada. After a deadly attack on his trading vessel, Jewitt finds himself spared by tribal chief Maquinna, only to be enslaved and put to work repairing weaponry and crafting survival tools. His detailed memoir offers valuable insight into the traditions and way of life of the Pacific Northwest indigenous tribes.
