Black Hawk
Author: Kerry A. Trask
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 9780805082623
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
A retelling of the Black Hawk War that brings into focus the forces struggling for control over the American frontier. Until 1822, the Sauk Nation occupied one of North America's largest and most prosperous Indian settlements, the envy of white Americans who had already begun to encroach upon the rich Indian land. When the inevitable conflicts turned violent, the Sauks were forced into exile, banished forever from the east side of the Mississippi River. Black Hawk and his followers rose up in the spring of 1832 and defiantly crossed the Mississippi from Iowa to Illinois to reclaim their ancestral home. Though the war lasted only three months, no other violent encounter between white America and native peoples embodies so clearly the essence of the Republic's inner conflict between its belief in freedom and human rights and its insatiable appetite for new territory.--From publisher description.

Book Description
George Kilgo was a simple farmer living with his wife and children in Winston County, Alabama when the Civil War started. Owning no slaves, all he and his neighbors wanted was to remain neutral and be left alone. Unfortunately the Confederacy and the notorious Home Guard had other plans for these Tories. After a series of tragic events George and his friend Bill Looney were faced with either death or being forced into the Confederate army. Instead they fled north and went to work for the Union General John Alexander Black Jack Logan as recruiters and scouts. A part of what happened in the Free State of Winston was made famous in the play The Incident at Looney's Tavern (which ran for thirteen years and was named one of the top 20 events in the Southeast.) This book fills in the gaps with the adventures of George Kilgo, the Black Hawk and Bill Looney, the Black Fox. Their story is a legend passed down from generation to generation in the Free State of Winston. The author is proud to share family stories of his great grandfather, George the Black Hawk Kilgo an imperfect man who carried out a personal mission of love for his wife and children.
