Pressestimmen

"Overall, this is a very good biography and resource for studying Tecumseh's period of history in the American northwest and the role that native peoples played in the War of 1812." -- Canadian Materials Magazine Jan 2010 "Anyone with an interest in the role of the British in Aboriginal resistance, North American history, the Shawnee people or Tecumseh will benefit from this title." -- Resource Links February 2010
