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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taken captive at the early age of thirteen by Seneca Indians, Mary Jemison was trained in the wilderness to the ordinary duties of the Indian female. Embedded with the sentiments and lifestyle of the Seneca's she essentially transformed into a member of the tribe. Mary Jemison's story is a remarkable one not because of her extraordinary lifestyle, but because this was the lifestyle that, in the end, she chose for herself. When prisoners were being set free from the bondage of the Indians after the French and Indian War, Mrs. Jemison chose to remain with her Indian friends and accept her Seneca upbringing. Known for her uncommon generosity, as Westward Expansion began to flourish, those who settled near the Genesee River soon became acquainted with The White Woman. This is not a facsimile but is a quality retype set addition. It is illustrated and contains a Appendix with Indian Geographical Names of the area.

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.
