    What did Mary Rowlandson record on her narrative?
    You would think that Mary Rowlandson wrote and decryed on her mistreatments as a captive, but she didn't, her main focus as a Puritan was God and his goodness. She explained how her captors managed to survive eating all sorts of animals. Her wish was not to tell her horrifying story, but to reveal God's purpose and goodness. Her writings revealed the Puritan's view of life with God on their side.
