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.

Mary Rowlandson's captivity narrative describes her experience as a captive of the Native Americans during the King Philips War in 1676. Her diary accounts for her capture to her return, although written a few years post her release. Her capture spanned around 11 weeks and is recounted in twenty 'removes'. Specifically, Rowlandson observes her experience in relation to God and the bible, her capture being expressed as a trial from God which she must endure with faith; only in doing so would she survive and remain a true Christian woman suitable for Puritan society. It is through this Christian perspective that she judges the Native Americans, creating an obvious bias against their culture.

Presenting an innovative, interdisciplinary approach to colonial America's best-known literary genre, Andrew Newman analyzes depictions of reading, writing, and recollecting texts in Indian captivity narratives. While histories of literacy and colonialism have emphasized the experiences of Native Americans, as students in missionary schools or as parties to treacherous treaties, captivity narratives reveal what literacy meant to colonists among Indians. Colonial captives treasured the written word in order to distinguish themselves from their Native captors and to affiliate with their distant cultural communities. Their narratives suggest that Indians recognized this value, sometimes with benevolence: repeatedly, they presented colonists with books. In this way and others, Scriptures, saintly lives, and even Shakespeare were introduced into diverse experiences of colonial captivity. What other scholars have understood more simply as textual parallels, Newman argues instead may reflect lived allegories, the identification of one's own unfolding story with the stories of others. In an authoritative, wide-ranging study that encompasses the foundational New England narratives, accounts of martyrdom and cultural conversion in New France and Mohawk country in the 1600s, and narratives set in Cherokee territory and the Great Lakes region during the late eighteenth century, Newman opens up old tales to fresh, thought-provoking interpretations.

- 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
