AT SUNRISE on March 16, 1649, an army of one thousand hideously-painted Iroquois Indians, far from their homeland in what is now New York State, war-whooped out of the Canadian woods to attack a quite village of Hurons near the shore of Ontario's Georgian Bay.

Told through the life stories of nine Indian chiefs, this narrative depicts the American Indian effort to preserve a heritage and resist the changes brought by the white man. Hiawatha, King Philip, Pope, Pontiac, Tecumseh, Osceola, Black Hawk, Crazy Horse, and Chief Joseph each represent different tribal backgrounds, different times, and places, and different aspects of Indian leadership. Soldiers, philosophers, orators, and statesmen, these leaders were the patriots of their people.
