5.0 out of 5 stars A great tale of Colonial America, March 21, 2003
By 
historyone (Republic of Texas, USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: WHITE INDIAN (Colonization of America : White Indian, Book I) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a fantastic series by Donald Clayton Porter that describes the life of "Renno" the fictional Seneca Warrior that is also a "white" man. The series begins in the 1670's when Colonial America was beginning to branch out from the American Coastline.
Renno, becomes the adopted son of the great "Ghonka", the main Chief/Warrior of the Iroqouis Confederacy. Renno grows to become a skillful warrior, leader, and emissary between the Colonial Americans and his people. Porter may have simplified and added some "tall tales" to this fictional series, however, it does not distract the reader one bit.
Renno's adventures, dealings with his Indian family and his relations with the Colonial Americans is interesting and I dare say "quite a page-turning". This is the first novel in a large series that tells about Renno's life and the generations after him.

The early books are long out of print, however if you ever have an opportunity to find the books, I can tell you that you will not be dissapointed in the least! This is a series that needs to be re-issued so other fans of historical fiction can enjoy this fine author's tales.

Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Remarkable, October 7, 2006
This review is from: WHITE INDIAN (Colonization of America : White Indian, Book I) (Mass Market Paperback)
I read 10 of the Series when they first came out in the 80's and thourghly enjoyed them all! The books give a great description of our country and the Seneca Indians and the horrific lives they lead. I highly recommend the "White Indian Series". Although I enjoyed all of the books that I read of these series my personal favorite,as I recall, was "Renegade". Donald Clayton Porter, the author, did a fantastic job on his description of the Indians. I hope that everyone that reads these books will get as much enjoyment out of them as I did. Cleanwaters06

4.0 out of 5 stars White Indian Series, June 7, 2011
This review is from: WHITE INDIAN (Colonization of America : White Indian, Book I) (Mass Market Paperback)
A well researched set of books. Read in the early 1980s can still remember a major portion of the books. Good historical research.
