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 story is set in the early 18th century in the region that is now the state of Illinois, and follows the life of a young Native American named Kaskaskia. Kaskaskia is a member of the Illini tribe, who are facing a crisis as they are being pushed out of their land by the French and other rival tribes. Kaskaskia is forced to leave his village and journey to the legendary Starved Rock, a sacred site that is said to hold great power and secrets. Along the way, he encounters various challenges and dangers, including battles with other tribes and encounters with European explorers. As Kaskaskia makes his way to Starved Rock, he learns about his own heritage and the history of his people, and must confront the difficult choices that lie ahead. This novel is a powerful exploration of Native American culture and history, and offers a compelling portrait of a people struggling to survive in the face of overwhelming odds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
