Produktbeschreibung

Elizabeth Guthrie comes to America from Ireland in 1771 with her parents, an older brother, and younger siblings. Through the Seneca Indians' and British Loyalists' raid and burning of Hanna's Town, Pennsylvania, in 1782, the capture of Elizabeth, her husband, and two children, Elizabeth shows her resilience to fight for her life and freedom. For two years, Elizabeth and her daughter fight through Indian captivity that takes her to Canada, a slave auction, and an attempt by the Indians to burn her at the stake, and so much more. Through the voices of Elizabeth and other members of her family, the story of this infamous day and her journey comes to life. Woman on Fire wraps a fictional story around historical events to give a page-turning experience.
