A vivid account of the experiences of an 18th century Sauk Chief, The Autobiography of Ma-Ka-Tai-Me-She-Kia-Kiak tells the story of Native American chief Black Hawk after his imprisonment by the US federal forces.

Black Hawk, born Ma-ka-tai-me-she-kia-kiak, was a great Sauk leader and warrior who lived in what is now the Midwestern United States during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He earned his chiefdom status through action and violence, and is most well known for leading the famous Black Hawk War of 1832, which attempted to drive white settlers off the land in Illinois. Shortly after the war, Black Hawk was captured by US forces and taken to tour a selection of Eastern US states.
