Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson

By: Rowlandson

When Mary Rowlandson awoke on February 10, 1675, the village of Lancaster, Massachusetts, was already on fire. For two hours, Rowlandson's family fought to protect their home from marauding Narragansett Indians. Finally, their little house was set ablaze, and the Rowlandsons fled into the open, where Mary and her three children were taken captive.So begins one of the most harrowing and unforgettable captivity narratives in the history of American literature. For eleven weeks, Mary and her surviving children traveled the wilderness with their captors, an arduous ordeal that tested the limits of her faith, and taught her the true meaning of empathy. A thrilling story packed with fascinating details about Native American customs and culture, Mary Rowlandson's account was an immediate bestseller when first published in 1682 and is a must-read for students of American history.

A True History of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson

By: Mary Rowlandson

Mary Rowlandson, a Minister's wife in New England as it says underwent a cruel and inhumane treatment from the Indians that took her captive. This is a story of sorrow and pain, of faith and truth, of tears and reflections, and of grief and hopes. The Indians poured their wrath and anger against this helpless small community.As she tells us in her narrative, in the midst of it all, miraculously, one of these salvages struck her as a lost star or beam of light by offering her a Bible he had from the Medfield fight, where they committed sacking and looting. He took it from his basket and gave it to Mary and she interpreted it as a gift from her merciful God in the middle of this valley of darkness.

Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Rowlandson

By: Mary White Rowlandson

- Mary ROWLANDSON, born White, later Mary Talcott, was born in 1637 and died in 1711 (at age 74), is an American and was captured by Native Americans for almost three months. In 1682, six years after her ordeal, she published "The Sovereignty and Goodness of God - Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson." This story is considered a work in the literary genre of captivity narratives. It is one of the first American "best sellers." Around 1650, his family left England and settled in Salem, then in 1653 in Lancaster, Massachusetts. In 1656, she married Reverend Joseph Rowlandson. On February 10, 1675, Lancaster was attacked by Amerindians, 13 were killed and 24 prisoners were taken captive, including Mary and her three children, Joseph, Mary, and Sarah. A week or so later, her 6-year-old daughter Sarah succumbed to her injuries. For three months, Mary and her children were forced to walk through the wilderness in harsh conditions. On May 2, 1676, Mary was released following a ransom. In 1678, his first husband, Mr. Rowlandson died. In 1679, she married Captain Samuel Talcott and took his last name. Mary and her children moved to Boston where she reportedly wrote her captivity story. In 1682, his account of captivity was published in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and in London the same year. - "The Sovereignty and Goodness of God

The Sovereignty and Goodness of God

with Related Documents

By: Neal Salisbury,Mary Rowlandson

Mary Rowlandson's The Sovereignty and Goodness of God, first published in 1682, is an English Puritan woman's account of her captivity among Native Americans during King Philip's, or Metacom's, War (1675-76) in southeastern New England. In this new edition, 21 related documents support Rowlandson's text, which is reprinted from the earliest surviving edition of the narrative. Neal Salisbury's revised introduction reflects the changes in scholars' understandings of issues relating to Rowlandson's captivity and her narrative that have occurred in the twenty years since the publication of the first edition. Five new related documents include a little-known narrative of Muslim captivity by a Puritan contemporary of Rowlandson's, a treaty that exhibits the motives of both English and Native American signers, an account of the forced removal of Christian Indians to Deer Island during Metacom's War, and two visual documents. The volume's document headnotes, footnotes, and appendices have been thoroughly revised in light of recent research and interpretations.

The Sovereignty and Goodness of God

By: Mary Rowlandson

Considered the first American "bestseller", "The Sovereignty and Goodness of God" follows Mary Rowlandson's three month holding by the American Algonquian Indians. The first by an Anglo-American woman, Mrs. Rowlandson's narrative remains a classic tale of captivity, which has captivated readers since its initial publication in 1682, and presents a unique perspective on transcultural interaction between early American settlers and their Native American counterparts. Following King Phillip's War, Mary and her three children were seized by Algonquian Indians in her town of Lancaster, Massachusetts. What ensued is a harrowing journey of tremendous hardship up to her release. Rowlandson integrates Puritan ideologies and Biblical verses; attributing much of her survival upon her Lord. The book's popularity inspired a generation of settlement novelists to incorporate the authenticity of Rowlandson's narrative into their works. This text is of great value to both the scholar and the general reader for its social and historical insight into Indian relations in the early days of American colonization. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
