Acerca de esta escucha
The History of Starved Rock provides a wonderful overview of the famous site in Utica, Illinois, from when European explorers first viewed the bluff in 1673 through to 1911, when Starved Rock became the centerpiece of Illinois' second state park.
Mark Walczynski pulls together stories and insights from the language, geology, geography, anthropology, archaeology, biology, and agriculture of the park to provide listeners with an understanding of both the human and natural history of Starved Rock, and to put it into context with the larger history of the American Midwest.
The book is published by Northern Illinois Press, an imprint of Cornell University Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.
"Mark Walczynski has written 'the' history of Starved Rock." (The Annals of Iowa)
"An accurate, deeply researched, labor of love." (Duane Esarey, Dickson Mounds, Illinois State Museum)

The local History of the Illinois Indians
I enjoyed learning the history of the French fur traders trading with the Illinois Indians, learning about the local Indian tribes, the waterways of Illinois and the beautiful Starved Rock region.

History for History lovers
This is a great book well written and well read. Anyone from Illinois out here in Audible world should take a listen to this book. I am proud to say I grew up 9 miles from Starved Rock and spent many happy hours there year round. To knows it’s real story is fascinating. Give this one your time it is well worth it.

Illinois History
I am a long term resident of Illinois but the History of Illinois was sort of blank to me. I was taught National History in school mostly. I knew the French were here first and desired to posses and secure the waterways of North America. This book covers not only Starved Rock but tribal Native American, French and English relations. This book opened my eyes as to how long corn and other agriculture has been produced in Illinois. I plan to reread or listen to this book a few times because there is so much to consider. Thank you for taking the time to write this book.
