First line

SHE SHIVERED, DESPITE THE HEAT OF THE HEARTH, AND glanced again toward the sunny rectangle of the cabin door.

From the jacket flap

Mary Ingles was twenty-three, married, and pregnant, when Shawnee Indians invaded her peaceful Virginia settlement, killed the men and women, then took her captive. For months, she lived with them, unbroken, until she escaped, and followed a thousand mile trail to freedom--an extraordinary story of a pioneer woman who risked her life to return to her people.
