Begin at the Beginning: John Gyles’ Odd Adventure: A Different Captivity Narrative
MHS Event
At MHS
Partnership of Historic Bostons/Abby Chandler, UMass Lowell
Most Puritan captivity narratives tell a tale of horror and fear. John Gyles, captured at the age of nine, tells a very different story of his upbringing among the Micmac and Maliseet peoples: that of understanding and respect. Join us for the last in this season’s discussion of primary readings, led by Dr Abby Chandler, and open to all.
