Autorenporträt
Solomon Mack (1732 – 1820) was an American author known for his singular autobiographical work, 'Narrative of the Life of Solomon Mack,' published in 1820. Born amidst the rural simplicity of Lyme, Connecticut, Mack led a life characterized by the raw frontiersmanship of early America (Mack, 1820). His experiences ranged from serving in the French and Indian War to struggling as a farmer and laborer, which formed the bedrock of his later reflections. His literary contribution lies within the narrative of his autobiography, wherein he recounts the diverse vicissitudes of his life, from his childhood, through his military service, to his spiritual awakenings and familial relations. Written towards the end of his life, Mack's narrative provides insightful commentary on both the personal and historical events of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, making it a valuable document for historians and scholars of American history. His storytelling, while not ornate, carries a raw honesty and a representation of the individual American spirit. His works not only shed light on his own lineage, including the birth of Mormonism through his grandson Joseph Smith, but also offer a window into the experiences of common men during revolutionary America. Mack's narrative remains a noteworthy piece of literature that captures the essence of an era from the perspective of an ordinary yet remarkably observant individual.
