description: An investigation into the controversy surrounding Hunter, a 19th century white man who claimed to have been raised in captivity by the Osage Indians and who fought to save the American Indians from genocide until he was murdered in 1827. His autobiography, published in 1823, was first acclaimed, and later denounced as a fraud, but the research behind this book uncovers a different story and returns Hunter to his rightful place in history.
