I read a lot of History books. This book doesn't read like a History book; it reads like Fiction. Still, it puts forward facts and clearly illustrates the Author's version of the truth about what happened between the newly formed United States and the Native people at the end of the 18th Century. As a local History buff from Pittsburgh, PA, (who lives along Girty's Run), I really enjoyed reading about the actual individuals behind so many street and neighborhood names around my city, and I was glad to see a somewhat more positive perspective on Historic figures who are so often painted in a sinister light on my side of the border. However, this isn't a book that portrays the Native Americans as innocent bystanders under European domination, nor does it glorify the British over the Americans. What comes out of the pages of this book is a story about an often forgotten War tucked between the American Revolution and the War of 1812, a War that was never officially given a name, a War that was symptomatic of Global changes in Technology and Culture that were transforming everything, a War between the old ways and the unstoppable future.If you are interested in an easy to read historical narrative about a fascinating character in a fascinating time, this is a good book. The style of writing is creative non-fiction, with action and suspense and drama, hence it is not an Academic History book. It was exciting to follow the Author as he 'plead the case' of one of American History's biggest Revolutionary Era villains from a Canadian and Native American historic perspective. Butts does a great job showing Simon Girty's world, and the challenges Girty faced kept me turning the page, but this is an account of events written for the more casual reader, rather than someone with a deep, academic interest in the subject. Just good non-fiction, not unbiased, exacting accuracy with stacks of compiled evidence. There is some poetic licence in this book, so I can see why some more serious historians disliked it.Again, I loved it. This is well constructed non-fiction that does not require much knowledge or fascination about the subject for the reader to follow, but is still fun even if you know the story already. Maybe even more fun.
Interesting, but take notes, there are too many names of early American soldiers and frontiersmen, British officers and soldiers and Indians. I always had wanted to know more about Girty, as he was born in the area of Harrisburg, PA where I was born and lived for a few year.
I think Simon Girty was one of the most misunderstood men in the early history of America. This book sheds much light on the man, and what motivated him to side with the British and Indians against the Americans. The book is well researched, and very readable, not a long list of dates.
I agree with the other one star poster. First off it's not a very well written book. Very bland and the characters did not have much depth. I guess I'm spoiled by Alan W Eckert The great author who wrote The Frontiersman and many other great books on the subject. The one thing that set my first red flag was when he described the Seneca Indian tribe. He made it sound like woman were on an equal footing and or higher with the man of the tribe. I about fell out of my chair. I have read many books on Native Americans and I need this Author to show research backing this up. Native American tribes were a male oriented and dominated society like it or not. Feminism did not exist back then. The other thing that pissed me off was how he was so negative towards the colonies and how he said that they were land thieves. I think he should've clarified that the native Americans and the English word just as bad. He did mention the Iroquois Indian tribe selling the other smaller tribes out but trust me the Indians would take land off of anybody. He also gave the false impression that the British would not take any land off of Indian tribes. Again not accurate at all. You can't rewrite history. Believe me if the British won the Revolutionary war they would've been taking land off of the Indians. They wouldn't not have left things go. They were a bankrupt empire and needed money badly. If you want to read about this period of time then read Alan W Eckerts series of books. They had better character depth and were a better written story
The book describes the Indian wars in Ohio from the native and British view. The author tries a little too hard to present the positive side of Simon Girth. This is my only criticism of the book.
Simon Dirty has been turned into a villain by dozens of authors, it's good to read both sides of the story. Simon Girty was torn between 2 cultures & tried to help the people that adopted him at a time when Indians were hated of course that turned the white race against him
easy read
The truth is not always popular. There is almost always two sides to every story.
