The Quest: A Warrior's Tale

The Quest: A Warrior's Tale is a story of the Delaware War Chief Killbuck who led raids against the settlers during the French and Indian War. His raids were brutal as he and his followers attempted to stop the never-ending westward movement of the white settlers. The British put a price on his head but never managed to capture him. He was a remarkable man who spoke several languages and fought long and hard for his people and his ancestral lands. A pragmatic man, he eventually aligned himself with the Americans and may have embraced Christianity before he lost his life while under protection at Fort Henry. It is thought that the notorious frontiersman Lewis Wetzel murdered him, but Wetzel was never prosecuted. Descendants of this determined chief live today.
