Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"At multiple points in Prophets, Cave demonstrates his historiographical acumen. . . . Cave's treatments, though, of Tenskwatawa and Tecumseh's efforts is perhaps the book's most informative historiographical contribution. . . . Cave's is an admirable text. It is well researched and finely written. To be sure, then, Prophets of the Great Spirit is a highly serviceable and commendable introduction for any student of Native American revitalization movements, Native American history and regions, and early American history."-Brendan Q. Swagerty, Journal of Religion -- Brendan Q. Swagerty * Journal of Religion * "In this excellent, enjoyable work, Cave explores how a series of connected religious movements led by dynamic prophets swept through Indian groups in eastern North America between 1744 and 1835. . . . Cave's book will be useful to students of religion as well as Native American history."-Choice * Choice * Read more...
