An excellent book a checked out at the library a few years ago. Early American life following the horrific story of a savage attack on a settlement. Kidnapping, torment, terror and finally a daring excape that lasted a 1000 miles back home. Not extirely predictable, you need to read to the end....

    this was one book that while reading it I had to take a break because I physically could not read it. I was crying so bad, I couldn't see the page. BUT- definately worth the effort of reading. What an amazing woman!

    One of my all-time favorites. Two women fight their way back home after being captured by Indians....and escaping. The trials they go through are heart-rending as well as humorous at times.

    Tense, exciting, romantic, even inspiring. With that said, I admit that I had a hard time with some of the "earlier" books' characterization of Native American culture while celebrating the victorious main character (who was usually white)

    I loved it. I could hear the rushing streams, and feel the crackle of dried leaves under my feet. You will walk every step with Mary Engles. A great read, I couldn't put it down.

    It was slow during parts and got repetitive during the middle, but overall it was a good book with an awesome and historically accurate storyline.
