Allan W. Eckert was een Amerikaanse historicus, historische romanschrijver en natuuronderzoeker. Zijn werken duiken diep in de Amerikaanse geschiedenis en de natuurlijke wereld, waarbij hij zich vaak concentreert op verloren soorten en grensverhalen. Eckerts kenmerkende stijl verweeft feitelijke nauwkeurigheid met meeslepende verhalen, waardoor het verleden levendig tot leven komt voor de lezers. Geëerd als de favoriete schrijver uit Ohio aller tijden, is zijn blijvende impact op literatuur en historische verslaggeving onmiskenbaar.

A shy, lonely six-year-old wanders into the Canadian prairie and spends a summer under the protection of a badger
Driven from their homeland, the Indians fought bitterly to keep a final stronghold east of the Mississippi. Savage cunning, strength, skill, and knowledge of the wilderness were their weapons, and the Indians used them mercilessly. But they couldn't foresee the white men who would come later, men who loved the land as much as they did, who wanted it for their own. Men who learned the Indian tricks and matched brutality for brutality.
