“The foregoing is a reproduction of a book published in 1860, giving the strange history of this Indian Captive. After returning to civilization, he resided for a few months in Carey and Fostoria, and made several lecture tours giving an account of his adventures and the manners and customs of the Indians.

“This mode of life was too much of a change from the wild life he had been living, and when the war of the Rebellion broke out he enlisted in an Indiana Regiment, and went to the South to fight for his country. He proved a brave soldier, but while in the service he was taken dangerously ill, and after a short sickness died at Pittsburgh Landing in 1862.”

Wrong!Either Brayton had an excellent ghostwriter and imagination or he wrote a good account of a mythical subject. Won't see this in many school libraries.By the way I may be related to Mathew in some fashion. That's why I got interested in the title.B L Brayton Southern Californiaby the way we lived for a few short years in St Anthony

8 of 9 people found the following review helpful. The Indian Captive By Colin Saxton Very unusual read. Short and to the point, it is a diary style of a true story of a young boy captured by Indians. He became part of their tribe for 34 years, and then returned to the white man's world to write this short story. Very interesting.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Authentic! By Bea Daniels I got this book for my husband who is a history buff and loves reading about the Native American cultures. He really enjoyed this book, the tale of a man who was held captive by several different tribes (sold or traded from one to another). His story takes place over 34 years. My husband really enjoyed reading this authentic narrative.
