| Annotation | "The Captured" is a true account of what settlers considered a "fate worse than death" and the dramatic, very personal story of Adolph Korn and eight other children abducted by Comanches and Apaches in the Texas Hill Country during the nineteenth century. Most of the kidnapped children who survived the initial ordeal became Indian at heart and never quite reconciled to white society, remaining tragically adrift between two very different worlds. Some sex and violence. |
