Dunn Hunter claimed to be ignorant of his birthplace[2] and that he was taken prisoner with two other white children by Native Americans who either belonged to or were associated with the Kickapoo nation.[3] Dunn Hunter lived with the Kickapoo until 1816[1] but he traveled widely during that time and received a good education[1], meeting Robert Owen[4] and John Neal[5] in England. Not knowing his real name, Dunn Hunter took on the name of an English benefactor, one John Dunn.[1] The \"hunter\" was later added due to his abilities in that field.[1] Dunn Hunter arrived in Texas in 1825[6] and in December he was sent by Richard Fields to Mexico with the aim of negotiating for a Cherokee settlement in Texas.[1][6] Dunn Hunter arrived in Mexico City on March 19, 1826[1] but regretfully returned to Texas April 1826 with news of his failure.[7] Dunn Hunter and Fields then opened negotiations with Martin Parmer which culminated in the Fredonian Rebellion.[1] The Cherokee repudiated the rebellion and ultimately it was decided that Fields and Hunter should be put to death.[8] Dunn Hunter escaped but a Mexican militia headed by Peter Ellis Bean was tasked with tracking him down.[8] Dunn Hunter was caught and executed in early February 1827.[1]\"--Wikipedia","brand":"Schoken Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32213782986822,"sku":"2307659","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1232\/9510\/products\/2307659.jpg?v=1606334953","url":"https:\/\/ym-demo.myshopify.com\/products\/white-savage-the-case-of-john-dunn-hunter","provider":"Yesterday's Muse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
