Order Nr. 79438

Printed in an edition limited to 400 numbered copies. Designed and reprinted by Jean and John Michael at the Acorn Press. Originally printed and sold at the Printing Office in New London in 1767. A rather matter-of-fact first-hand account of Isaac Hollister's captivity by Native Americans beginning in 1763. Surprisingly devoid of details about the people who captured him or the circumstances surrounding the situation. Half title page with a woodcut of the captivity. Headers and footers throughout. Section titles printed in red. Title page printed in red and black. Cover printed with brown and silver on the red paper wrappers.
