Set against the backdrop of brutal frontier life in eastern Kentucky, where bloody conflicts rage between settlers and Indians, historian William E. Connelley chronicles the true story of the infamous Captivity of Mrs. Jennie (aka "Jenny") Wiley. Forced to witness the destruction of her home and the slaughter and scalping of her own family, this wife and devoted mother of four is dragged from her home and taken captive by Indians.
This is a remarkable story of courage, perseverance, faith and human survival. The dramatic chain of events which follow Mrs. Wiley's capture directly shape the very foundation of the earliest pioneer settlements in the Kentucky wilderness, and the ultimate birth of the state itself.
The author, who grew up in Eastern Kentucky where the events occurred, also includes a fascinating collection of genealogical accounts of his own family and the prominent families of the region.
