Lewis Wetzel, a famous scout and ranger on the early American
frontier just west of the Appalachian Mountains. He is a true
American icon, but is he a hero or a villain? Almost all of the
early settlers considered him a hero because he vowed to "kill any
Indian" who crossed his path and in doing so deterred the Indians
from striking the settlements. Others of the time considered him a
barbarous, psychotic murderer for killing innocent Indians,
including women and children and thus incited the Indians to
warfare against the growing population of whites. They claim Lewis
Wetzel did everything in his power to prevent peace between the
Indians and the settlers so he could keep on killing with impunity.
"Deathwind" is what the Indians called Lewis Wetzel for whenever he
made a kill, he would throw back his head and let out a scream of
hatred, rage and defiance that echoed throughout the hills. Other
Indians, upon hearing that scream, would know that one of their own
had just met his end at the hands of the best woodlands warrior
that ever lived. The author of this book wrote the story of Lewis
Wetzel in almost novel-like form which makes for very interesting
reading and he attempts to keep the middle ground as to whether
Wetzel was a hero or a villain. He has left it up to you, the
reader, to decide.
