Larimer was a 19th-century American pioneer and memoirist whose brief but powerful account of captivity and survival on the western frontier stands as a rare firsthand narrative by a woman. In 1864, while traveling westward with her family, Larimer and her young son were captured by Native American warriors during a violent raid near the Little Blue River in Nebraska Territory. Her husband was killed, and she endured a traumatic ordeal before ultimately escaping captivity and returning to safety. Determined to share her experience and honor the resilience of women on the frontier, Larimer self-published her account in the years following the incident.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Capture and Escape of Sarah Larimer\u003c\/em\u003e, first published in 1870, recounts her gripping journey from sudden violence and captivity to her eventual escape and survival against overwhelming odds. Written in a clear, unflinching style, Larimer's narrative not only chronicles the hardships of her experience but also reflects the courage, maternal instinct, and fortitude required to endure and overcome such a trial. Her memoir offers valuable insight into the dangers of pioneer life and the role of women in the westward expansion of the United States. As both a historical document and a compelling human story, it remains a powerful testament to survival and the frontier spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 184\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.39 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 11, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53849138069811,"sku":"9781667305011","price":24.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/NvzHnp6KqH9781667305011.webp?v=1786568087","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-capture-and-escape-of-sarah-larimer-the-1870-true-story-of-frontier-survival-and-courage-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
