About the author

David Zeisberger lived in the Moravian(United Brethren) community of Herrnhut as a child, joining his parents in the colony of Georgia in 1738 and moving to Pennsylvania in 1740. In Pennsylvania he began learning native languages, which included two dialects of Delaware (Lenape) as well as Mohawk and other languages. He started communities for converted natives in Pennsylvania and in Ohio country, two of which were called Gnadenhutten ('tents of grace'), both of which faced suspicion and massacre from several sides-- American colonists, the British, and traditionalist natives. His writings include dictionaries and grammars, religious texts translated into Native American languages, and history and autobiography.
