Seven And Nine Years Among The Camanches And Apaches: An Autobiography

Seven and Nine years Among the Camanches and Apaches: An Autobiography

by Edwin Eastman

This fictional autobiography chronicles the supposed experiences of Edwin Eastman, a pioneer who, along with his wife, is captured by the Comanche and Apache tribes while traveling westward. Eastman endures seven years of captivity among the Comanches, learning their ways and even becoming a practitioner of homeopathic medicine, before escaping. He then embarks on a two-year mining expedition and eventually sets out to rescue his wife, who had been sold to the Apaches. After a successful rescue, the couple returns east and resumes their lives. Though presented as a factual account, the book is largely fabricated and draws heavily upon elements from other adventure narratives of the time, particularly those detailing encounters with Native American tribes.
