Tecumseh! by Allan W. Eckert
A richly detailed narrative portrait of the Shawnee leader Tecumseh and his brother, the Prophet, tracing their rise from frontier hardship to the creation of a pan-Indian confederacy aimed at resisting American expansion; the book follows Tecumseh’s charismatic leadership, diplomacy and military campaigns, his uneasy alliance with the British during the War of 1812, and the cultural and political forces that produced both his meteoric influence and his eventual death, presenting a vivid account of Native American resistance and dispossession.
