"A Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson" is a
memoir written by Mary Rowlandson, an English colonist and mother who was
captured by Native Americans during King Philip's War in 1675. She was held
captive for 11 weeks and 5 days before being released. The memoir is
considered one of the first bestsellers in America, with four editions printed
in 1682. During her captivity, Rowlandson adapted to the Native American
community and wrote about the uncertainty and brevity of life, as well as her
unwavering belief in God. She also wrote about her changing attitudes towards
the food she was given. Rowlandson was separated from her family and new
friends several times during her captivity, but eventually reunited with her
husband and children. The memoir is considered a captivity narrative and is an
important piece of American literature.
