Synopsis
In ca. 1300, Little Hawk and his family take a trip to trade with the Indians of Cahokia, the great city along the Mississippi River.

The enigmatic mound builders of North America constructed the major prehistoric American city of Cahokia where the Missouri and Mississippi rivers meet. Albert Lorenz chronicles a fictional canoe trip by a family of Native American fur traders from Lake Erie to Cahokia over 600 years ago, focusing on a young boy named Little Hawk as they glide by intriguing mounds along their perilous journey. Lavishly detailed full-color pen-and-watercolor illustrations accompany the text, as well as an afterword with photographs of artifacts and known facts about the mystery of the mounds.

Publisher's Note
Based on new research and archival images, a coming-of-age tale of a young Native American named Little Hawk shows how his family and other members of their tribe made a trading journey from his small village to the great mound city of Cahokia in the midwestern United States, long before the appearance of the Europeans.
