Hardcover. Zustand: Collectible-Very Good. 'I was born a white at sea on the way to the New World . . . But I was taken by those whom we called Indians. Nearly speechless for a time, I was beset by terrors.' This is the voice of Mary Jemison, who, in 1758, at the age of sixteen, was taken by a Shawnee raiding party from her home near what would become Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. In this intimate reimagining of her life story, Mary endures the brutal scalpings of her parents and siblings and is given to two Seneca sisters who treat her as their owna symbolic replacement for the brother they lost to the white colonists. Renamed Two-Falling-Voices, she gradually becomes integrated into her new family, learning to assist with the hunt and to cultivate corn. She marries a Delaware warrior, raises a family in her adoptive culture, becomes friends with two former slaves, and eventually, remarkably, fulfills her lifelong dream 'to own land bordered by sky, as my mother and father had once purchased woods and fields which were dappled with changing light.' A testament to the resilience of the human mind and spirit, The White is a cut-crystal narrative of Mary's life among the Seneca, lit by flashes of her own voice and revealing her curious, open heart. From the novel's bloody opening to its arresting conclusionby her own choice Mary does not return to white societyDeborah Larsen never flinches from the violence and the splendor that marked the settling of the New World. From the Hardcover edition.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Edition [stated]. xi, [1], 219, [7] pages. Inscribed and dated by the author to Steve Roberts (husband of Cokie Roberts) on the title page. Inscription reads: To Steve with all best wishes. Thank you so much for making me feel comfortable. Deborah Larsen, September 5, 2002. Ms. Larsen is the winner of the 1987 Wallace Stegner Fellowship to Stanford University. Perviously she lived in Oxford, England where she was a prizewinner in the National Poetry Competition and read her poetry for BBC Radio 3. She also taught creative writing at Gettysburg College, PA. This novel is based on the true story of a woman named Mary Emission (or, as some think, Mary Samisen) who, in 1758, was actually taken by a Shawnee raiding party in south-central Pennsylvania, and forced from her home. In this reimagining of her life story, Mary gradually becomes integrated into her new Indian family and by her own choice does not return to white society. 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.
