The Last of the Illini: Or The Legend of Starved Rock, A Tale of Illinois is a historical fiction novel written by William Noble Roundy and published in 1916. The book tells the story of a young Frenchman named Pierre, who travels to the Illinois territory in the 1700s to trade with the local Native American tribes. While there, he falls in love with a beautiful Illini woman named Ouatoga and becomes embroiled in the conflict between the Illini and their enemies, the Iroquois. As Pierre learns more about the Illini culture and traditions, he becomes determined to help them defend their land and way of life. The novel is set against the backdrop of the legendary Starved Rock, a natural landmark in Illinois that was once a strategic location for Native American tribes. The story is filled with action, adventure, and romance, as Pierre and Ouatoga fight to protect their people and their love. Overall, The Last of the Illini is a compelling historical fiction novel that offers a glimpse into the lives and struggles of the Native American tribes in Illinois during the colonial era. It is a tale of love, loyalty, and sacrifice, and a tribute to the rich cultural heritage of the Illini people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
