Book excerpt: Captivity Narratives - Six True Stories of Indian Captivity - American Indian Slaves & Captives. Captivity narratives are stories of people captured by enemies whom they generally consider "uncivilized." Traditionally, historians have made limited use of certain captivity narratives. They have regarded the genre with suspicion because of its ideological underpinnings. As a result of new scholarly approaches, historians with a more certain grasp of Native American cultures are distinguishing between plausible statements of fact and value-laden judgements in order to study the narratives as rare sources from "inside" Native societies. Contemporary historians such as Linda Colley and anthropologists such as Pauline Turner Strong have also found the narratives useful in analyzing how the colonists constructed the "other," as well as what the narratives reveal about the settlers' sense of themselves and their culture, and the experience of crossing the line to another. Colley has studied the long history of English captivity in other cultures, both the Barbary pirate captives who preceded those in North America, and British captives in cultures such as India, after the North American experience. Accounts of captivity narratives based in North America were published from the 18th through the 19th centuries, but they were part of a well-established genre in English literature. There had already been English accounts of captivity by Barbary pirates, or in the Middle East, which established some of the major elements of the form. Following the American experience, additional accounts were written after British people were captured during exploration and settlement in India and East Asia.

This book was released on 2018-12-02 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume, which was first published in 1799, is the autobiography of frontiersman Col. James Smith, together with an analysis of Indian culture. The book gives an account of the remarkable occurrences in the life and travels of Col. James Smith (later a citizen of Bourbon County, Kentucky), during his captivity with the Indians, in the years 1755, 1756, 1757, 1758, and 1759. It was written by Col. Smith himself. The book provides, for the first time by any author, a full account of the customs, manners, traditions, theological sentiments, mode of warfare, military tactics, discipline and encampments, treatment of prisoners, and so on. It also includes a detailed description of the soil, timber and waters, where Col. Smith travelled with the Indians, and during his captivity, and further provides a brief account of some very uncommon occurrences, which transpired after his return from captivity. Finally, the book describes in depth the different campaigns carried on against the Indians to the westward of Fort Pitt, since the year 1755, up to 1799.

James Smith: During His Captivity With the Indians, in the Years 1755, 56, 57, 58,& 59 As the Indians never attempted to prevent me either from reading or writing, I kept a Journal, which I revised shortly after my return from captivity, and which I have kept ever since: and as I have had but a moderate English education, have been advised to employ some person of liberal education to transcribe and embellish it - but believing that nature always out shines art, have thought, that occurrences truly and plainly stated, as they happened, would make the best history, be better understood, and most entertaining.
