Frontier Indiana (History of the Trans-Appalachian Frontier) - 1840

Cayton's lively new history of the frontier period in Indiana puts the focus on people, on how they lived, how they viewed their world, and what motivated them. He focuses his account on representative individuals such as Jean-Baptiste Bissot, George Croghan (the ultimate frontier entrepreneur), Little Turtle, Anna Tuthill Symmes Harrison and William Henry Harrison, and Tenskwatawa the Shawnee Prophet. Retelling the story of Indiana's settlement in a human and compelling narrative, Cayton makes the experience of exploration and settlement real and exciting for all readers.
