Beskrivelse

In this captivating volume, youll discover true stories of courage and resilience, meticulously arranged in chronological order to enhance your understanding of the historical context surrounding each tale. While many names featured here can be found in any encyclopedia, the remarkable stories of Peter Williamson and John Tanner stand out. Peter Williamson, kidnapped at the tender age of eight in Glasgow, Scotland, endured a harrowing journey that led him to the Cherokee Indians in 1745. His incredible life took a turn as he became a prominent figure in England, advocating for justice and even introducing Indian war dances to British audiences. Meanwhile, John Tanner, the son of a clergyman, found himself kidnapped by Indians after a troubled childhood. Rather than escaping, John embraced his new life, remaining with the tribe until old age. His extraordinary story was dictated to others, as he never learned to read or write. Together, these accounts provide invaluable insights into early life among Native Americans. - Summary by the author
