Description
In this story, Olive was along for the ride with her large family who was traveling out west in search of a new life in California. As their caravan dwindled down to only a few wagons after a dispute, they are left more vulnerable than ever to Indian attacks. Olive and her young sister are captured by an outlaw Indian tribe and held for ransom. Olive is eventually rescued by a friendly Indian tribe who welcome her into their community. After everything she had been through, she was still able to keep her faith and hope in God, thankful for His kind providence that kept her safe through many trials. 148 pgs, pb. ~ Brianna
Publisher's Description of Ransom's Mark (Daughters of the Faith)
When 13-year-old Olive Oatman's wagon train is raided by outlaw Yavapai Indians, she and her sister are captured. After enduring harsh treatment, they are ransomed by a band of Mohaves. Olive struggles to adjust to her new life, but finds comfort in her faith and in an unexpected friendship.
When the time comes for her to return to the previous world she once knew, she is afraid she will never fit in. But she learns to see the Mohave design tattooed on her chin as a sign of God's love and deliverance, a mark of ransom.
Category Description for Daughters Of Faith Series
This well-written series introduces girls of today with godly young women of the past in a well-crafted blend of fact and historical fiction. Although each of these girls endured hardships that we rarely encounter today, their strong faith in God saw them through and enabled them to accomplish great things as well. Because their stories are true, and the focus is on a girl or young woman (a minority in most historical biographies!), this inspiring series introduces girls to solid role models they've probably never even heard of and reminds readers of the things we can accomplish and difficulties we can survive by looking to God for help. As a bonus, each story also is set in a rich, historical backdrop that will enrich the reader's appreciation for history. A glossary is included for less familiar, or antiquated words. - Jess
