A Narrative Of The Incidents Attending The Capture, Detention, And Ransom Of Charles Johnston, Of Botetourt County, Virginia is a memoir written by Charles Johnston himself in 1827. The book details the events that occurred when he was captured by a group of Native Americans in 1790 and held captive for over a year before being released for a ransom payment. Johnston describes his experiences in captivity, including the harsh living conditions and the physical and emotional abuse he endured. He also provides insight into the culture and customs of the Native American tribe that held him captive. The book is a first-hand account of a historical event that sheds light on the interactions between Native Americans and European settlers in the late 18th century. It offers a unique perspective on the often-violent conflicts that arose between these groups and provides a glimpse into the daily lives of those who lived during this time period.Who Was Made Prisoner By The Indians, On The River Ohio, In The Year 1790.
