In February of 1675 Narragansett Indians lay siege to Mary Rowlandson’s village. Most were killed. 'The bullets flying thick, one went through my side, and the same through the bowels of my dear child in my arms.' This marvelous reading of her account, descriptive and mindful of the will of God, is a very powerful audiobook.

      In 1675, during King Philip's War, 37 inhabitants in the settlement of Lancaster, Massachusetts, were attacked by Indians. Mrs. Mary Rowlandson, one of the captured women, recounts her experiences with the Native Americans, which include the death of a child, fleeting meetings with her son, and the vicissitudes of her captors' way of life. Carrington McDuffie richly portrays the myriad of emotions experienced by this early American. As Mrs. Rowlandson intimately experiences a new way of life, she feels initial disdain at Indian behavior, followed by a perplexing change in regard for her captors and a final resolve that her experience is the will of the Lord.
