More than 20 years in the writing, Brian D. McInnes's Sounding Thunder is an extraordinary book. --Tanya H. Lee Indian Country Today The recognition of a remarkable Canadian and Nishinaabe hero alone makes this a worthy read. Perhaps more essential is the defense and persistence of Nishinaabe culture through the incorporation of language and stories in this book. --Jacob C. Jurss Studies in American Indian Literatures This uniquely intimate portrait illuminates Francis's commitment to live in a way that reflected the spiritual values of sharing and respect for life, despite his military record of 378 enemy kills for which he became renowned. --Allyson Stevenson Canadian Journal of History We could all benefit from a lesson in the storytelling traditions of McInnes, Wasauksing, and the Ojibwe nation.
