Black Hawk
The autobiography of Ma-Ka-Tai-Me-She-Kia-Kiak (Black Hawk’s birth name), first published in 1833, is the autobiography of the Native American Sauk leader Black Hawk. During his time in custody following clashes with European-American settlers on ceded tribal land, Black Hawk told his story to an interpreter and journalist. This story, what would become Life of Black Hawk, went on to become the first Native American autobiography and an instant best seller. Black Hawk not only traces his own history, but that of his people; he delves into Native American traditions, and gives accounts of various conflicts he was involved with, including the most infamous and his name sake: The Black Hawk War of 1832.

However do think it would been a good thing for reader to contact one of the Sac and Fox tribes to learn how to pronounce the names of the people and tribes correctly.
Overall it’s a good look into history of my people.
