"This well written narrative, purporting to be only the biography of a captive among the
Senecas, is really the best resumé we have of incidents in the history and common life of the
Seneca Indians. Its truthfulness is vouched for by such veracious testimony as that of Eli
Parker, an educated chief of that nation, though its authenticity can scarcely have greater
corroboration than the fact that Mr. Seaver received almost the whole mass of incidents
narrated in his book, directly from the lips of the aged captive herself. A portion of the
book which future ethnologists will highly prize, is contained on pp. 300 to 312, where the
Indian names of nearly 400 localities, in the State of New York, are given, with their
English significations.' Field.

An exact reprint of the first folio, with a fine impression of the portrait after Droeshout's engraving.

"This uncastrated reprint of 1808, is much more coveted than the later attempts at facsimile, and will fast rise in value. The original, from which it is reprinted, is continually increasing in value. Mr. Daniel's copy produced £716 2s., and the competition, whenever a copy occurs, is so strong, that, probably, what our ancestors deemed dear at £100, will be regarded as cheap at £1,000 by our successors."
