Warrior Woman: The Exceptional Life Story of Nonhelema, Shawnee Indian Woman Chief

Praise for James Alexander Thom
and Sign-Talker

"Very readable, fresh, original, and vivid."
-LARRY MCMURTRY

"James Alexander Thom is one of the finest historical novelists writing today. He knows how to tell a cracking good yearn, cares passionately about getting his history right, and has a gift for illuminating those forgotten but fascinating corners of the American past with sheer storytelling power."
-JOHN SUGDEN
Author of Tecumseh: A Life

"Excellent . . . It is at once an adventure story [and] a historical document . . . Even though many readers know the story of Lewis and Clark, Thom's novel will give them new insight."
-The Indianapolis Star (4-star review)

"The majesty of the scenery, the wonder of the stately tribes who greet, and menace, the expedition and the expedition's mix of soldiers, ne'er-do-wells, and French traders all combine to produce a strong novel about the days when Missouri was at the edge of the map."
-The Kansas City Star

"This great journey halfway across a wilderness continent and back has never been told so compellingly, with so much dignity and wisdom, as in Sign-Talker."
-SCOTT RUSSELL SANDERS
Author of Hunting for Hope
