Sintesi dell'editore
She endures a harrowing march north to what she imagines may be a life of slavery. But when they reach Montreal, a sudden twist of fortune brings Miriam to the acquaintance of the prominent Du Quesne family. The Du Quesnes introduce her to a life of luxury that she never could have imagined, and compel her to the most important decision of her life. Based on the actual narrative diary published in 1907, Calico Captive skillfully re-enacts an absorbing facet of history.
"Vital and vivid, this short novel based on the actual captivity of a pre-Revolutionary girl of Charlestown, New Hampshire, presents American history with force and verve." ( Kirkus Reviews)

Excellent
Good book and good narration voice. The voice was easy to understand and moderate in variations in sounds. We felt it wasn't over or under done. The book wasn't as interesting to us as Witch of Blackbird Pond, but it was good.

A true story
This account of a kidnapping in early America held my interest and captured my imagination. The writer created not characters but real people who were easy to care about.
It’s amazing how a civilized people can behave savagely to each other. It’s also amazing how people then managed to survive horrible circumstances that would probably kill a modern person.
I recommend this terrific listen.

Share this one with your kids!
I loved this when I was a girl -- forty-something years later, it's still a great book! The audio version is nicely done.

Calico captive
This audio book was very interesting. I enjoyed it very much. The characters were colorful and I liked some of them, but really disliked a lot of them. It was painful to know some of the issues that were experienced by this girl.
