My Captors Did Not Hurt Me, and They Preferred To Get A Ransom Using Me! Eventually, They Sold Me! Narrative Of The Captivity And Restoration Of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson Allow me to take you on a journey back-dating a long time ago when Indians roamed the land freely, fending for their animals. During this period, a historic occurrence occurred, and its recollection is written in this narrative. Mrs. Mary narrates this traumatizing moment in the hands of Native Americans, as she vividly recalls. Besides, all the acts of kindness that the natives showed her are equally documented. The Natives attack Mrs. Mary Rowlandson???s village, many people are killed, but she and her wounded child are spared though captured. While held captive, she chooses to stay put with no escape plans since she learns that if she tried to escape, she might die if caught. In addition, she finds out that the natives have no intention of harming her but would instead get a ransom using her. Her captors treated her fairly well. The natives went to war with the settlers as a way of reiterating. Theirs was a fight for what was rightfully theirs before it was forcefully snatched from them, leaving them to starve. During her trying moments, she quotes bible verses, which gives her some assurance and empowers her to hang on. The author keeps us captivated and glued to the book as we try to mentally recreate the challenging scenarios that were unfolding in Mrs. Rowlandson's life at the time. The book explains the following: War between the natives and the English settlers King Phillips declares war on the white settlers Mary???s wounded child passes on. Sold to neighboring Indian nation.
