"Boys' Book of Indian Warriors and Heroic Indian Women" by Edwin L. Sabin is a collection of historical stories that shines a light on the lives of brave Native American warriors and women. The book recounts their courageous acts and strength during times of struggle and war. Told from the Native American viewpoint, the book presents their reasons and values. The opening story introduces Piskaret, a brave warrior from the Adirondack tribe, who showed fearless acts against the Iroquois in the 1600s. In a time of major conflict between Native tribes and colonizers, Piskaret goes on a lone mission, using clever ways to dodge his foes. His secret journey into enemy lands and his surprise night attack display his bravery and the difficult truths of his time.
