### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Compelling read of its time
  

*by G***L on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 September 2024*

It really is a fasinating book that accounts a life that few have experienced. I purchased it on a whim and didnt regret it. A chance to read an almost diary like real life experience from such a dramatic time in american history.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 June 2019*

This is a story of a white boy who is captured by Indians and lives with them for nearly a decade in the American south west. There's no "revisionist" plot here, nor indeed any other type of slant on this story. It's simply told as it happened. The stark image of the tribes involved really does paint them for what they are. A Stone Age society in decline due to the encroaching civilisation of the white man. things are brutal and life is often cheap, not only other people's lives but one's own, depicted by the decisions made that bring the individual glory or death. There's a feeling that the indigenous people are indeed civilised, but their civilisation is far behind the rest of the world at that time. Bravery and the ability to fight and steal are highly prized. But the image of the noble savage, with this story tells us that their nobility is somewhat different than a modern person would imagine. Despite the fact that this is biographical and therefore has no thought out structure that a novel would, It's utterly engrossing. Anyone with a passing interest in the Old West could do a lot worse than read this.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Thrilling and informative.
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 October 2023*

Nine Years Among the Indians is a wonderful book. If you're interested in history,  this is a stark, factual account of life as an Indian. I couldn't put it down. I learnt how to make arrowheads, what parts of a beef to eat first, raw! I learnt about the stoic bravery of a young boy, stolen from his kin fighting to be accepted and survive.Thankyou Herman Lehmann for putting pen to paper and furnishing us with this amazing unadorned first hand account of Indian life.
