Using the figure of Pocahontas, America's first ethnic heroine, as a representative symbol in the cultural imagination of America, this volume examines American women's fiction in terms of gender and ethnicity. Dearborn discusses the problems of authenticity, authority, and genre that plague the ethnic female tradition, and analyzes the dominant themes that appear in American women's fiction--generational conflict, renunciation of one's ethnic origins, and intermarriage. She evaluates the writings of black, immigrant, and Jewish women from Our Nig by Mrs. H.E. Wilson, the first novel by a black woman, to the works of Gertrude Stein and Toni Morrison, and concludes that American women writers who take ethnicity as an integral part of the American identity can best portray what it is to be a woman and an outsider in the social fabric of America.

"The Story of Pocahontas" is a biographical account of the life of Pocahontas (1596-1617), a Native American woman famous for her connection to the colonial settlement at Jamestown, Virginia. It covers everything from her capture and conversion to Christianity, to her arrival in London and subsequent celebrity. Charles Dudley Warner (September 12, 1829 - October 20, 1900) was an American novelist and essayist. He was a close friend of Mark Twain, and co-authored "The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today" with him. Other notable works by this author include: "Baddeck, And That Sort of Thing" (1874), "In the Levant" (1876), and "On Horseback, in the Southern States" (1888). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
