Synopsis
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.

    Great seller! They shipped the item quickly and price was reasonable. Item took some extra time to arrive considering it was a small paperback book. The item was shipped in a plastic bag envelope. A stiff envelope would have been better as the item got a bit bent during shipping. Item has 3 stickers from the buyer or like a library on it that were not shown in the pics or mentioned in the description so I would not rate condition as “very good.” The stickers would affect collectibility.

  • History and story... a good combination

    This is history in a narrative form, all of the content based on close letters written by the people in the book themselves. With all the liberal historians trying to rewrite history these days with the typical "Indians are good and white people are always evil", it's nice to have a book written in a way that has an honest depiction of all the people, Indians and white, who settled in the Ohio and Kentucky regions of America. The good and the bad is depicted, but it is a very interesting historical account of the people who lived over 200 years ago in our American wilderness.

  • Frontiersman

    A friend of mine also agrees this story of Simon Kenton is not only one of the most important stories in the American experience, but that it is so good, that we feel compelled to send the book to Clint Eastwood with a request for him to make a motion picture based on the book. Could anyone do a better job? We think it would be fantastic. Please write to Mr. Eastwood and join our effort.
