Customer Reviews

An excellent resouce and easy read.

I have many books on the Blackhawk War. This book is very straightforward and deals with the Sauk/Fox history and way of life as it pertains to Blackhawk. It presents Blackhawk as a human being rather than "the noble savage." This book is impartial in it's presentation of the causes and effects of the Blackhawk War. It basically presents the facts without glorifying any party. It also deals with the aftermath of the "last indian war east of the Mississippi." I highly recommend this book to any fan of indian life or lore.
