It's fascinating -- having grown up reading Orson Scott Card's "Tales of Alvin Maker," I already had a view of Tenskwa-Tawa as an inspiring visionary figure... I'd heard of Takumsaw before, but only as a war leader, and never in the context of his brother until Card's books. But if this book is to be believed, the prevailing (inaccurate) narrative for generations was that Tenskwa-Tawa was a pathetic, venal loser.
