Here, Philip F. Gura offers the first book-length chronicle of Apesss fascinating and consequential life.

Placing Apesss activism on behalf of Native American people in the context of the eras rising tide of abolitionism, Gura argues that this founding figure of Native intellectual history deserves greater recognition in the pantheon of antebellum reformers.
