Editorial Reviews
“The history engages us fully…The remarkable texturing of the historic period and the description of responses by early Americans and their leaders…set Calloway’s book apart.”
—Los Angeles Times
“A remarkably accessible distillation of Shawnee history…The treks and treaties are not always easy reading, but Calloway’s text is enlivened with judicious first-person excerpts and his passion for his subject. His heart is with the Shawnees, but he writes with balance of the fateful meeting of the cultures on the frontiers.”
—Publishers Weekly
