Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In 1758, when Mary Jemison is about sixteen, a Shawnee raiding party captures her Irish family near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Mary is the only one not killed and scalped. She is instead given to two Seneca sisters to replace their brother who was killed by whites. Emerging slowly from shock, Mary--now named Two-Falling-Voices--begins to make her home in Seneca culture and the wild landscape. She goes on to marry a Delaware, then a Seneca, and, though she contemplates it several times, never rejoins white society. Larsen alludes beautifully to the way Mary apprehends the brutality of both the white colonists and the native tribes; and how, open-eyed and independent, she thrives as a genuine American. In this brilliant historical novel, Larsen deftly reimagines the extraordinary true story of a young woman in colonial America who is captured by a Shawnee raiding party and who never rejoins white society. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9780375712890
