Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Narrative of the Life of Mrs. Mary Jemison offers a remarkable perspective on eighteenth-century America. A white settler by birth, Mary Jemison was taken captive as a child in 1758 and adopted by two Seneca sisters. Refusing offers to return to settler society, she chose to spend the remainder of her life as a Seneca wife, mother, and respected community member. In 1823, the now-elderly Jemison shared her life story with white American writer James Seaver, who published it as a captivity narrative the following year. Conscious of the impacts of Seaver’s editorial hand, this edition foregrounds Jemison’s voice while also recentering Indigenous perspectives through an informative introduction and an illuminating selection of contextual materials.

Book excerpt: The film Dance with Wolves shows how some whites, at the time of the first European contacts with American Indians, chose not to return to their own culture. Mary Jemison was perhaps the most famous white captive who stayed to live among the Indians. Her account of her life with the Senecas--as told to upstate New York doctor James Everett Seaver in 1824--has gone through countless editions, reprints, and retellings before the creation of this definitive edition by the feminist scholar of ethnicity June Namias. In 1758, at about the age of fifteen, Mary Jemison was captured with her Scotch-Irish family in western Pennsylvania by a party of six Shawnees and four French in the Seven Years' War. Her captors traded her to two Seneca sisters, who adopted her to replace a slain brother. Jemison knew that her family had been killed when she saw her mother's red-haired scalp drying over a campfire along with the scalps of her father and brothers. She herself would survive two Indian husbands (a Delaware and a Seneca), the births of eight children, the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the development of the canals in western New York, to die in 1833 at about age ninety. Mary Jemison's vivid personal account of her life is full of insights into Iroquois culture. It is also a major document of acculturation and survival. Mrs. Jemison stayed with the Senecas mainly because of family ties, but she also became part of Seneca society. A Narrative of the Life of Mrs. Mary Jemison is an example of an original American literary genre, the captivity narrative. Such wild and woolly accounts were the first westerns of the American frontier and the first national best-sellers. But Jemison's story isalso about the conflicts, complexities, and relationships among white and native cultures in early America. Her Iroquois woman's perspective on the American Revolution, and on New York in the eighteenth and the early nineteenth century, is unique among the primary sources that w

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Narrative of the Life of Mary Jemison: White Woman of the Genesee Life of Mary Jemison, the White Woman of the Genesee, is, in all its details, a wondrous story of one of the most remarkable captivities suffered at the hands of the Indians by the early settlers of this country. Told by herself with extraordinary clearness of memory at the age of 80 years to James Everett Seaver, M.D., it was first published at Canandaigua, N.Y., in 1824; and now, ninety-four years later, after no less than nineteen editions in this country and England, the popularity of the work is so persistent that this Twentieth Edition has become necessary. For details of the bibliography of this classic in the Indian history of Western New York, the reader is referred to the chapter on that subject on pages274- 293 following; but for a proper comprehension of the story as a whole a few general observations may here be made. In the course of the preceding nineteen editions, the book has received the impress notably of four men, each in turn as editor, namely, James Everett Seaver, M.D., Ebenezer Mix, Lewis Henry Morgan, LL.D., and William Pryor Letchworth, LL.D. Dr. Seaver, in his original narrative, brings out with vividness the personality of the White Woman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
