"A Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson" is a memoir written by Mary Rowlandson, an English colonist and mother who was captured by Native Americans during King Philip's War in 1675. She was held captive for 11 weeks and 5 days before being released. The memoir is considered one of the first bestsellers in America, with four editions printed in 1682. During her captivity, Rowlandson adapted to the Native American community and wrote about the uncertainty and brevity of life, as well as her unwavering belief in God. She also wrote about her changing attitudes towards the food she was given. Rowlandson was separated from her family and new friends several times during her captivity, but eventually reunited with her husband and children. The memoir is considered a captivity narrative and is an important piece of American literature.
