520 _a"The Big Brother: A Story of Indian War" by George Cary Eggleston is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set during the summer of 1813, the story revolves around the hostilities between American settlers and Creek Indians in the southern United States. The narrative centers around the Hardwicke family, particularly the eldest son, Sam, and his siblings, who find themselves navigating the dangers presented by the brewing conflict. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the backdrop of escalating tensions in the region, as the Creek Indians, incited by external forces and prophetic figures, prepare for brutal warfare against the settlers. The narrative quickly shifts focus to the Hardwicke family, with Sam, the eldest son, characterized as knowledgeable and resourceful. As the initial eruptions of violence unfold, Sam demonstrates his courage and determination to protect his younger siblings, Judith and Tommy, amidst the chaos and terror of their environment. The opening chapters depict the urgency of their situation as they take refuge in a fort, setting the stage for a gripping tale of survival, family loyalty, and the harsh realities of frontier life during wartime.
