The Extraordinary Tale of "The Scottish Indian"

  1. The Extraordinary Tale of "The Scottish Indian" Daniel Mainwaring 34:39

In the late 18th century in Scotland, a vagabond gained attention with a story of kidnapping, slavery, war, and immersion into native American culture. Peter Williamson became a sensation in the British Isles, but how much of his story was true? In this episode, I explore the bizarre tale of Peter Williamson. I separate fact from fiction and reveal the unlikely aspects of his story that proved to be true.
