The difficulties they had to endure defy meaningful description but the author does an exceptional job. Every review of this book seems to make a point of warning the reader of the gruesome violence contained in these pages.

Indeed the warnings are worth taking but the violence is typical of what you would encounter in reading any history of the conflicts whites had with our native Americans.

What you might not expect is that the behavior of the whites toward the Indians is every bit as ugly and barbaric and neither side is able to claim victimhood in this history.

The violence begat more violence until there was little difference between the parties of these disputes.

The sad part is that the violence continued for another century and spanned the continent. Aside from the violence, however, the author fully reports the formation of small villages and hamlets that were to grow to the towns and cities we are familiar with today.

An enjoyable feature of the book is the notes section of the book where the author has taken pains to locate the present location of the sites of the historic events depicted in the book.

I cannot believe that every resident of Kentucky and Ohio, especially those living along the Ohio River, do not possess and are completely familiar with this book as it is their foundation history in all its muddy, bloody, and challenging detail.

The only criticism I could have of this book is its length. At just under pages of text the book is a daunting read but it is worth the effort.

I agree with the other reviews that say it is a tragedy that Simon Kenton isn't more well known, I developed a hardcore history crush on him as I read this book.

From my understanding, it exists in that esoteric space between fiction and non; it reads as a novel, but hews too closely to an academic vibe with use of primary sources, etc.

I like it! You can get the immersive, intense experience of a well-researched novel without the usual necessary factual sket My first Eckert, and probably my second or third experience with this strange and hard-to-define "narrative" style.

You can get the immersive, intense experience of a well-researched novel without the usual necessary factual sketchiness and outright invention.

Eckert's prose is workmanlike but still pretty in a utilitarian way and he obviously has a deep love and knowledge of the Ohio area, which is crucial as people are constantly running around it doing all kinds of stuff and the details really bring it to life in your head.

The overarching plot is indeed about the settlement read: conquest of the Northwest Territory and thusly it has a sizable cast of people from all walks of life.

However, it's particularly focused on two men: Simon Kenton and Tecumseh. Kenton is certainly an interesting figure That said, Tecumseh was unquestionably the more interesting of the two for me.

After the Shawnees had been forced further and further west by the military victories and weak-ass duplicitous treaties of the whites, he was the best chance for a turning of the tides not only for the Shawnee but for many of the other native nations of the continent.

He proves himself again and again to not only be a clever, brave and formidable statesman and warrior but to be compassionate, constantly speaking out against the brutal torture his fellow natives would put captured Europeans through I have a clear and obvious bias for the native peoples here and fervently wanted Tecumseh to violently throw off the greedy yoke of the encroaching whites.

It's impossible to avoid discussing the horrible, horrible violence in this book. There are countless scenes of murder, torture and mutilation perpetrated by both sides and they are portrayed very vividly.

I consider myself fairly desensitized to this kind of thing, as most people who enjoy history probably do. That said, there were several scenes in this book that just made my blood run cold as fucking ice, particularly the nauseating Gnadenhutten massacre.

I imagine that for people living in this area today reading this book would be something like reading a news clipping about a particularly long and gruesome series of murders that happened a long time ago in your house.

I really have to give humanity credit for the inventive and thoroughly disgusting ways we've managed to kill each other during our wonderful time on Earth.

All in all a very bittersweet experience. It's a grand story but it's also disturbing to read this stuff as a citizen of the country that is coldly hacking through and shitting on so much humanity in these pages.

Maybe bittersweet isn't the world Still, it's all very valuable reading to anyone interested in any of the numerous subjects it covers, even if you only have a passing interest like I did when I started it.

As usual I have to give nerd credit to the multiple well-made maps and illustrations sprinkled artfully throughout the book. I'm certainly going to continue on with the series, but not until the trauma fades.

Because of the format, Eckert is at pains to describe how he put his book together in a foreword. And it works. It did take some getting used to, as my history-reading and novel-reading instincts clashed for a bit.

The book presents much of the Even in the realm of narrative history, this is fairly unique. The book presents much of the immediate feel of life on the frontier, which is something inevitably lost in most historical works, but well-conveyed by fiction.

Kenton is one of the central figures of the American move across the Appalachians, though not as well known as contemporaries such as Daniel Boone possibly because Boone came first, and naturally attracted much of the story telling of the time.

As a partial balance, the book also traces Temcumseh's entire life. Overall, both sides of what was happening in the area is presented, with attention paid to atrocities perpetrated by settlers and Indians.

It still concentrates more on activities of the settlers, but that is where the records are, and it is not Eckert's purpose to split hairs by finely examining archeology and oral traditions.

However, Eckert's book does suffer from its formatting. Each chapter consists of a large number of subchapters, each of which is dated. Normally, this works out well, and is handy to place the chronology, but there's plenty of sections that are just summaries of the previous few months, and towards the end there are entire years that are summarized with a 'December 31' entry.

I'd like to see more narrative history in general, and I think this format is good enough that it deserves to be used more than it has been.

But while this is a good book, I can't help but feel like its still a little too limited. I read this book long ago and really enjoyed it.

It may be harder to track down now I plan to "re-read" this if I can make room on my list. I read it back in the '70s and liked it a lot. Hope I can work in a reread.

I read this first in and always remembered it as a good read. It is, it's so good I've decided to up my rating to 5 stars.

This book is history but written with all the excitement and interes I read this book long ago and really enjoyed it.

This book is history but written with all the excitement and interest of a novel. While Mr. Eckert may put words in the mouths of the characters as he imagines conversation the events in the book are historically accurate.

You'll come away from this book feeling as if you knew the people involved. The picture here is also one of reality. There's no way not to come away with a better understanding of what happened to the Native Americans and what they lost.

Of course another thing we came away understanding is that to the settlers there was not the idea of robbing the natives they were just in a war.

Like all people in all wars you end up fighting for the one next to you not some idea. Hatred blossomed between so many of the participants while others grew in respect for each other.

This is an exceptionally good book and a good history. If approached with an open mind I think a lot of insight can be had. I recommend this and for that matter Allan W.

Eckert's other work. I've read the 'Frontiersmen' three or four times; it's a magnificent book. Be that as it may, I do find one shortcoming regarding Eckert's narrative.

In the introduction, the author states that his book is fact, not fiction. Unfortunately, this is not entirely correct.

Without a doubt, Eckert dramatizes a lot of the events that occurred during the time period in which 'The Frontiersmen' takes place.

Too, he writes convincingly about a few incidents that have no basis for historical accuracy or c I've read the 'Frontiersmen' three or four times; it's a magnificent book.

Too, he writes convincingly about a few incidents that have no basis for historical accuracy or certainty. To Eckert's credit, however, he did make amends for some of his unsupported and erroneous 'facts' in 'The Frontiersmen' when he wrote his subsequent books 'A Sorrow in Our Heart,' and 'That Dark and Bloody River.

Great Book. Good History of the settlement of Kentucky and Ohio. Mar 04, Adambmour rated it it was amazing. This is a revisit to my childhood.

I had to read this in middle school over the summer. But, upon reading it as an adult, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The Frontiersmen chronicles the life of Simon Kenton a Kentucky frontiersman and Tecumseh the leader of the Shawnee and the events surrounding the white expansion into what is now known as Ohio and Kentucky.

Unlike many historical books, Eckert uses various resources, journals, newspap This is a revisit to my childhood.

Unlike many historical books, Eckert uses various resources, journals, newspaper articles, etc to create a narrative of the life of the two main characters.

Also, my new kitten is named after a random person identified in the book named Pemberton. So, props to that. Still, I decided to stick with it for historical value.

After all, Eckert promises that everything in here is authentic. But when I got to the story of Marmaduke van Swearingen, a white boy adopted by the Shawnee who later became the great war chief Blue Jacket, alarm bells went off in my head.

Nov 03, Jim rated it it was amazing. What a great book. I think this should be required reading for for youth. Not just about interesting history, but human nature and Christianity.

Ok, sure some controversy about BlueJacket and his genetics, and books statements, but I see as a small blemish.

A lot to be learned in this book about the faults of humanity and incredible history. Mar 30, Bob Mayer rated it really liked it. All of Eckert's books are classics.

When the frontier was in the eastern United States. His books give us history, up close and personal. Aug 23, John Carey rated it it was amazing.

A telling of the white man settling the Ohio River valley and the Native American response, mostly through severely underrated historical figures, Simon Kenton and Tecumseh.

Though ultimately a narrative, the author claims every line of dialouge was taken from a historical source which was mind boggling and at times borderline impossible to believe.

While time and research has nitpicked the book for inaccuracies here and there, I'm not sure he could have written a more well researched book when A telling of the white man settling the Ohio River valley and the Native American response, mostly through severely underrated historical figures, Simon Kenton and Tecumseh.

While time and research has nitpicked the book for inaccuracies here and there, I'm not sure he could have written a more well researched book when you look at the myriad of sources.

I'm inclined to believe it's a great first order approximation of what really happened. I also appreciated him letting the story tell itself for the most part and leaving the moralizing up to the reader.

The obvious and simple conclusion is that the whites did extreme wrong to the Native Americans, but not delving deeper does a disservice to the epic story behind the conclusion.

I'm by no means an expert but I now have dumbfounded respect for Tecumseh and a better understanding of the tribes whose names are merely places where I live.

Not only was its level of detail, knowledge, and interpretation deep but its storyline and dialogue captivating. Personally, being born and raised in Pittsburgh, reading about the settling of the frontier in my area was fascinating, and I was constantly looking up modern names for the original settlements.

I did find reading about the true history of the Native American genocide disheartening, as the main character of the book was determined only to advance the lands of the young US.

I frequently found myself at odds with his heroics, as they were often at the expense of some great tribal nation who only sought to maintain the land they were born in.

How different it would have been if the tribal amalgamation had been a success, and how sad it is that our destruction of their way of life and reneging of sworn treaties are what often get left out of US textbooks.

Apr 18, Jacob rated it it was amazing Shelves: owned. The author did a fantastic job employing narrative to detail the history of the Northwest Territory.

This book did justice to both the early American frontiersmen and the Native Americans by accurately surveying both their heroic acts of bravery and their shameful acts of cowardice.

It was fascinating to read about the people and events that so greatly impacted the development of the state of Ohio. If you are from the area and are at all interested in local history, this book is a must-read.

Jul 15, Peggy rated it it was amazing. This story focuses mostly on Simon Kenton who was a brave woodsman,fighter and scout. At a very young age he was forced to leave his family and forge a life of his own.

Also featured is the great warrior chief of the Shawnees, Tecumseh , who was able to assemble all of the Indian tribes and almost defeated the whites who came to make America their home.

This is a sad story and yet a brave one. When you read what the settlers went through to claim the land and also what the Indians went through to protect their heritage it makes you appreciate the beginnings of our Ohio.

It is a gruesome story as these were gruesome times. The story begins very slowly but as I got to the middle of the book I couldn't put it down.

The author has researched this time period so extensively and writes so beautifully that he puts you right there. It took a long time to read as it is over pages but it was an important era of our history.

I learned so much from this book I can't wait to read another of his books as he wrote several of that time period. Sep 18, Jeffrey McDowell rated it it was amazing.

One of the most informative and gripping accounts I've read. It focuses on the struggles of early westward expansion from the mid- to lates to the time of the early s.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in American history. Oct 08, Faith Justice rated it really liked it Shelves: ebook.

The author calls this a novel about the settling of whites beyond the Allegheny Mountains, primarily in Kentucky and Ohio, but also a bit beyond to Indiana, Tennessee and Missouri.

It reads like non-fiction--straightforward narrative with chapter notes. The author does impute emotions to the characters in a novelistic way.

The dialog is supposedly taken from diaries and published accounts. I found the writing plain but the history fascinating, especially since I grew up in Ohio and was somewhat The author calls this a novel about the settling of whites beyond the Allegheny Mountains, primarily in Kentucky and Ohio, but also a bit beyond to Indiana, Tennessee and Missouri.

I found the writing plain but the history fascinating, especially since I grew up in Ohio and was somewhat familiar with many of the characters.

And there are a lot of characters. Allan W. Eckert deals with all the leading Native Americans, U. He covers the establishment of nearly every city and village native or settler in the area; every raid and murder again on both sides and military actions.

It sometimes became a bit overwhelming, but his "touchstone" characters were the famous frontiersman Simon Kenton and legendary Shawnee chief Tecumseh.

He filled in the background on their parents, siblings and lives from birth to death. Eckert began and ended the book with Kenton's story and regularly returned to him during the narrative.

In general, I enjoyed the book. The middle sagged a bit and, as I mentioned, the detail could get overwhelming. I would give it three stars for reading pleasure and the fourth for the great research.

I will be reading the sequel. One chapter note struck me. According to Eckert, Andrew Jackson our 7th president was likely born at sea and ineligible for the Presidency.

He presents some compelling firsthand accounts one, a woman who claimed to have delivered him on the boat and muddy dates Simon Kenton mentioned meeting Jackson leading a gang of men in Kentucky when, according to the official biography, Jackson would have only been twelve years old.

Our first birther controversy! I recommend this book for those serious about early US expansion history. If you're looking for a romantic story or more traditional HF, this isn't the book for you.

A lovingly crafted tale that surrounds the history and lives of frontiersman Simon Kenton and the Shawnee Chief Tecumseh. What I was blown away by were the painstaking details Allan Eckert put into this book making sure nothing that was not documented contradicted with the history.

I did not really know anything about either person and came away with a great respect for both. This book humbled me in my trivial trials compared to the days of the frontier.

I listened to the audio version of the bo A lovingly crafted tale that surrounds the history and lives of frontiersman Simon Kenton and the Shawnee Chief Tecumseh.

I listened to the audio version of the book through Audible. The narrator did a great job with the Indian words, names and accents as well as the other cultures which can be distracting or embarrassing if not done well.

While presented as historical genre, the authors embellishments establish a tone for the events that may or may not have been present and are not supported by the chapter references.

This can not help but skew the accuracy of the events depicted. While acknowledging this early in the author's notes, his example of degree of the embellishments is not accurate.

There are 17 pages of end notes for pages of narrative. Clearly there is enormous degree of embellishment without basis in historical While presented as historical genre, the authors embellishments establish a tone for the events that may or may not have been present and are not supported by the chapter references.

Clearly there is enormous degree of embellishment without basis in historical fact. With the exception of easily verified dated events, I am find that I am unable to understand the line between fact and fiction and unable to trust the book's accuracy.

The book would be more fairly categorized as historical fiction rather than as history. That said I did enjoy the stories. As a 7th generation Kentuckian my G-g-g-g Grandfather fought under George Rodgers Clark I am familiar with many of the places and areas mentioned in the book.

I have traveled roads that were once the trails described in the book. I have paddled the same routes on the Kentucky and Ohio Rivers.

The book allowed me to imagine my ancestors role in the early history of Kentucky and connect the narrative to my own experiences in the Kentucky landscape.

Aug 10, Juls rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: Buckeyes. Shelves: really-really-like. Simon Kenton, what a hunk. All I can say is that Ohio is a sweet place to grow up and learn about history.

This books is a fictional retelling of the history of wait, I forget, oh yeah, frontiersmen in Ohio. Written by a Buckeye, what's cool is that the events and places mentioned are still existing and visit-able.

Yes I know that's not a word. Pretty factual hardcore writing, but it's a goodie. Jan 14, Caroline rated it it was amazing.

This is the story of Simon Kenton and Tecumseh written in a very compelling and factual way with a wonderful narrative element.

Anyone who lives in the Ohio Valley will be amazed by who came before us. Nov 19, P. Everyone has that first book when they were a kid, that first book that initiated them to the world of literature.

For me The Frontiersman was that book. In this fashion, Google Maps makes virtual changes to the real city. All of these apps function via interfaces with Google Maps and create new forms of digital capitalism and commodification.
