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 18th century and centers around the Illini tribe, who are struggling to survive in the face of European colonization and the spread of disease. The protagonist, a young Illini warrior named Kewayden, is forced to confront the changing world around him as he fights to protect his people and preserve their way of life. The novel is based on the legend of Starved Rock, a historic site in Illinois where a group of Illini warriors were said to have died of starvation while under siege by their enemies. The Last of the Illini offers a vivid portrayal of the cultural clash between Native American tribes and European settlers, as well as the devastating impact of colonization on indigenous peoples.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
