The Exceptional Life Story of Nonhelema, Shawnee Indian Woman Chief by James Alexander Thom and Dark Rain Thom. Her name was Nonhelema. Literate, lovely, imposing at over six feet tall, she was the Women’s Peace Chief of the Shawnee Nation. Sister to Cornstalk, she was already a legend when the most decisive decade of her life began in 1774. That fall, with more than three thousand
Virginians poised to march into the Shawnee’s home, Nonhelema’s plea for peace was denied. So, she loyally became a fighter, riding into battle covered in war paint. Filled with rich historical detail and descriptions that are Thom’s trademarks, Warrior Woman is a memorable historical novel. Paperback.
