This book is an autobiographical account of John Tanner, portraying his life and adventures during his thirty years of servitude among the Ojibwa. The account is divided into two major sections. Part I is mostly about his childhood and assimilation into the Ojibwa clan, his travels and experiences as a fur trader, and his unsuccessful return to white society. Part II of this document contains some limited ethnographic data on the Ojibwa, primarily focusing on the list of plants, animals, totems, and the texts of various songs of the Ojibwas used in medicine and hunting.

Edited with historical annotations and translations, John Tanner's seminal autobiography tells the story of a man who, over the course of 30 years, became almost fully assimilated into Anishinaabe society and culture - coming to view the world almost completely through an indigenous lens. The narrative includes fascinating stories of survival, daring hunting, starvation, sickness, and coming home to the white world only to return to the only life he had become accustomed to: that of an Indigenous person.
