Wacousta

This is an awesome book for anyone interested in the early history of Fort Pontchartain at Detroit or Pontiac and the Huron Indians. It's difficult at first getting used to the old style flowery language of that era, but once you do, you can't put the book down. Find out who Waucosta was, why he was so angry, and why revenge was his only choice.
