Traces the life of the Sauk Indian leader who struggled in vain to prevent the Americans from claiming the rich farmland near the Mississippi River in Illinois. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Great book about an unknown Native American leader (at least by me) and a not widely known Native People, the Sauks and the Fox. I highly recommend it because this is a story about a Native American people that is not often told about. We usually concentrate on the Plains people. The time period for this book is the Revolutionary War to about 1830.
