New England Captives Carried to Canada Between 1677 & 1760 During the French & Indian Wars

by Emma Lewis Coleman

Originally published in two volumes in 1925, this book represents decades of research conducted by Coleman and C. Alice Baker. This work names all the captives the two women discovered, provides biographical data for each, and paints a detailed picture of the Indian attacks on New England communities over the eighty-year period. Includes sources, a comprehensive index, and an appendix for greater explanation of terms, key people, and places mentioned in the text. For nearly a century, this has been the go-to resource and the most definitive work ever published on the subject.

Excellent reference book for those who may have had ancestors who were held captive or massacred by Indians in New England.
