A biography of the Shawnee chief describes his plan to amalgamate all North American tribes into one people, hsi role as a military strategist, and his death in battle
Allan W. Eckert bol americký historik, historický románopisec a prírodovedec. Jeho diela sa hlboko ponárajú do americkej histórie a prírodného sveta, často sa zameriavajú na stratené druhy a príbehy z hraničného obdobia. Eckertov jedinečný štýl pretkáva dokumentárnu presnosť s pútavým rozprávaním, čím čitateľom prináša živý obraz minulosti. Bol ocenený ako obľúbený ohijský spisovateľ všetkých čias, čo podčiarkuje jeho trvalý vplyv na literatúru a historické rozprávanie.

A shy, lonely six-year-old wanders into the Canadian prairie and spends a summer under the protection of a badger
Driven from their homeland, the Indians fought bitterly to keep a final stronghold east of the Mississippi. Savage cunning, strength, skill, and knowledge of the wilderness were their weapons, and the Indians used them mercilessly. But they couldn't foresee the white men who would come later, men who loved the land as much as they did, who wanted it for their own. Men who learned the Indian tricks and matched brutality for brutality.
