In Beside Herself: Pocahontas To Patty Hearst, Hadas explores the life of the Native American Pocahontas, who rose to international fame after marrying Englishman John Rolfe. As the story of Pocahontas unfolds, Hadas reveals the young woman's tumultuous journey from her home in Virginia to the colonies, her interactions with the English, and her fateful encounter with the Englishman John Rolfe. Hadas also examines the larger-than-life figure of Patty Hearst, the heiress to the Hearst Corporation who was kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army in 1974 and held hostage for nearly three months.; Knopf Poetry Series; 8vo; FSA.
