Frontier Mother,
By A Customer
This review is from: Frontier Mother: A True-Life Story of Indians And Adventure (Paperback)
This book is interesting less for its literary quality than for the Indian captivity tale it tells and the example it provides of a little-known woman heroine of the American frontier era, based on a true story. Since you have to dig hard these days to find the unvarnished, less savory accounts of Indian and white settler behavior in early American history and since tales of only a few women heroines of the era are recycled over and over again, this book both reminds us of historical truth and adds a woman heroine to the standard lexicon. Suitable for upper- grade school (with parental approval) through adult readers.
