The Unredeemed Captive The Unredeemed Captive written by John Demos, published in 1995 In New York by First Vintage Books Edition, is a story that shows the Path of Settlers who were captured by Indians. Demos’ main goal in writing this book was to not only tell a story but also teach us about the complex relationships of the New England settlers, the Indians, and the French settlers. This Book focuses mostly on the Abduction of John Williams and how his daughter Eunice turn from the Indian stereotypes the Puritans gave them and rejects for family for a new one. The story starts off in 1704 in a colonial town of Deerfield where Mohawk Indians (who were allies with the French) attacked the town
