Summary: "The Sign of the Prophet: A Tale of Tecumseh and Tippecanoe" by James Ball Naylor is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative is set against the backdrop of early 19th-century Native American resistance led by Tecumseh and the complexities of American frontier life. The main character, Ross Douglas, embarks on a journey to join General Harrison's army, signaling the approaching conflict along with his Wyandot friend, Bright Wing. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to Ross Douglas and Bright Wing as they paddle down the Scioto River. Their conversations reveal the tensions surrounding the imminent conflicts between American settlers and Native American tribes allied with the British forces. Through various interactions with other characters, including Ross's struggles with his love for Amy Larkin and the challenges posed by her father's disapproval, the narrative establishes the personal stakes amidst the larger political turmoil of their time. As they prepare to join the military efforts against Tecumseh's allies, the tension between duty and personal longing emerges poignantly, setting the stage for a tale of adventure, loyalty, and eventual confrontation.
