Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from Indian Creek Massacre and Captivity of Hall Girls: Complete History of the Massacre of Sixteen Whites on Indian Creek, Near Ottawa, Ill; And Sylvia Hall and Rachel Hall as Captives in Illinois and Wisconsin During the Black Hawk War, 1832 No one is satisfied with an incomplete story. The very meagre and inconsistent accounts of the adventures of Sylvia and Rachel Hall (familiarly known as the "Hall girls") heretofore published, merely excited one's curiosity to know the whole story. The ladies' statements that have been published, gave only an outline of the facts as far as they knew them personally. To obtain all the facts, required much investigation of books and a great deal of correspondence with historical societies, editors of newspapers and the War and the Interior Department of the United States. Also, the writer has had personal interviews with relatives of the Misses Hall, and has traveled over the ground and examined all the evidence that now appears from the location of the little cottage on Indian Creek to Galena where the girls took a boat for St. Louis.
