Captors and Captives: The 1704 French and Indian Raid on Deerfield. By Evan Haefeli and Kevin Sweeney. (Amherst: University of Massachusetts Press, 2003. xviii, 376 pp. $29.95, ISBN 1-55849-419-7.)

A decade ago, two studies of the Deerfield raid and its participants appeared nearly simultaneously: Evan Haefeli and Kevin Sweeney's "Revisiting The Redeemed Captive" (William and Mary Quarterly, Jan. 1995) and John Demos's The Unredeemed Captive (1994). Now, in time for the three hundredth anniversary of the raid, comes Haefeli and Sweeney's longer study. And yes, we do need it, as Captors and Captives provides an absorbing and important depiction of the diverse communities scattered across the Northeast at the turn of the century—particularly French and Indian—and the sometimes bitter, sometimes friendly relationships that connected them.
