      [WALTON, William (1740-1824), editor.] A Narrative of the Captivity and Sufferings of Benjamin Gilbert and His Family ... taken from their Farms on the Frontiers of Pennsylvania, in the Spring, 1780. Philadelphia: Joseph Crukshank, 1784. First edition, with early provenance. "A rare ... chronicle of the vicious warfare which raged throughout the frontier settlements during the American Revolution. Gilbert dictated his experiences to William Walton, who wrote this book" (Reese). The Gilberts were a Quaker family who were homesteading in present-day Carbon County when a war party captured them, seeking revenge for atrocities by George Washington’s troops against Native villages along the Susquehanna River. The Gilberts were marched all the way to Niagara Falls and did not return home until 1783. This account became a best-seller and the second edition appeared the following year. Evans 18497; Howes W-80; Reese, Revolutionary Hundred 78; Sabin 27348; Vail 718. Octavo (197 x 110mm). (Browned, edge-stains, page corners rounded at beginning and end.) 20th-century speckled calf (a little rubbed, old endleaves preserved but well-worn). Provenance: Catherine Ridge (contemporary ownership signature) – other members of the Ridge family (signatures and annotations to flyleaves and title, including the names of the captives in this narrative and their families: Rebecca Gilbert, Benjamin Gilbert, Thomas Peart, Elizabeth Peart).
