Excerpt from Saratoga an Indian Tale of Frontier Life; A True Story of 1787 The general characteristics of American life and manners at the period immediately succeeding the Revolution, have been often and well portrayed. But every section of the country then presented special local peculiarities, arising in part from the various races of the settlers, partly from the different relations in which they stood to the Aborigines, and partly from the character of the country itself. These local peculiarities afford an inexhaustible field for the historian and novelist. It has been the aim of the author of the following pages to present a picture of a particular time and place. Most of the incidents narrated have been handed down by tradition as veritable facts; and the principal personages introduced are drawn from actual prototypes. And even in those parts which are more purely imaginary, it is believed that no historical probability has been violated. For all artistic purposes, whatever might be true is true; and this book is presented to the public as a faithful, though of course an incomplete, picture of Saratoga in 1787.
