Book Synopsis Black Hawk by : Kerry A. Trask
Book excerpt: "Longing for the life they has lost, Black Hawk and his followers, including more than six hundred warriors, rose up in a rage in the spring of 1832, and defiantly crossed the Mississippi from Iowa to Illinois in order to reclaim their ancestral home. Though the war lasted only three months, no other violent encounter between white America and native people embodies so clearly the essence of the United States' inner conflict between its belief in freedom and human rights and its insatiable appetite for new territory.".
