A Narrative of the Life of Mrs. Mary Jemison offers a remarkable
perspective on eighteenth-century America. A white settler by
birth, Mary Jemison was taken captive as a child in 1758 and
adopted by two Seneca sisters. Refusing offers to return to settler
society, she chose to spend the remainder of her life as a Seneca
wife, mother, and respected community member. In 1823, the
now-elderly Jemison shared her life story with white American
writer James Seaver, who published it as a captivity narrative the
following year. Conscious of the impacts of Seaver’s editorial
hand, this edition foregrounds Jemison’s voice while also
recentering Indigenous perspectives through an informative
introduction and an illuminating selection of contextual materials.
