The Daughter of the Chieftain is a novel written by Edward S. Ellis. The book is set in the early 19th century and tells the story of a young Native American girl named Wauneta. She is the daughter of a powerful chieftain and is known for her beauty and intelligence. Wauneta is kidnapped by a rival tribe and taken to their village. There, she meets a young man named Robert, who is a member of the tribe that has taken her captive. Robert and Wauneta fall in love, but their relationship is complicated by the fact that they come from different tribes. The book follows Wauneta's struggles as she tries to reconcile her love for Robert with her loyalty to her own people. It also explores the themes of cultural differences, love, and loyalty. The Daughter of the Chieftain is a classic tale of star-crossed lovers and is a must-read for anyone interested in Native American culture and history.I'm going to take her with us as a hostage. We're not clear of the varmints yet. I believe Omas himself ain't far off, and the rest will be on our heels all the way to Stroudsburg. If they get us in a tight place, I'll let 'em know we've got the gal of Omas with us, and if they harm a hair of our heads it'll be all up with her. We'll take her clean to Stroudsburg, and then turn her loose, for we won't have any further need of her; but she must go with us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
