- Summary:
- A fast-paced, riveting novel based on the true story of Mary Jemison, who in 1758, at 16, was taken by a Shawnee raiding party from her home in Pennsylvania. A testament to the resilience of the human mind and spirit, "The White" is a cut-crystal narrative of MaryUs life among the Seneca, lit by flashes of her voice, and revealing her curious, open heart.
