My Story by Elizabeth Smart is the memoir of her kidnapping when she was fourteen years old. When removed from her home in Salt Lake City at knifepoint in the middle of the night, she was taken captive by a religious fanatic. She was then kept chained in a tent in the mountains for nine months, disguised and repeatedly raped. She recalls the fear she experienced after being told her family would be killed if she tried to escape.
This book is written in first person and her personal revelation of this horrendous experience.
