Capt Adam Poe’s Book

[fwn...@comcast.net]

Dear Poe Friends

I have scanned the book written by Capt Adam W Poe. The book, “A True
History of the Three Brave Indian Spies, John Cherry, Andrew and Adam
Poe“, includes a partial history/genealogy of that Poe family in
America and a version of the famous frontier Indian battle between the
Poe brothers, Andrew and Adam, and the Wyandot Indian war party led by
Big Foot son of Half King. The final segment is a memoir written in
1887 that includes stories of Capt Adam Poe’s river experiences.

There is a kind of mythology that stories like this tend to drift
toward. A wonderful read.
