Governor William Henry Harrison enlists the aid of Steve Rubbell, whose friendship with the Shawnee chief Tecumseh goes back to childhood. Tecumseh's leadership of the Shawnee is contested by his brother, known as The Prophet, who sides with the British. Tecumseh, who grew up as a childhood playmate of Steve and of Laura McGregor, loves Steve as a brother and hopes to marry Laura. But Laura is in love with Steve. Laura's father, Shayne McGregor, secretly leads local support of the British against the Americans, even though it risks the life and love of his daughter.

Jon Hall is actually quite good in this fictional historical romp that sees his "Steve Ruddell" character caught up in the early battles between the UK and it's itchy-footed colony, the US - as well as a more fraternal one between Tecumseh (Jay Silverheels) and his brother Michael Ansara ("the Prophet") for leadership of the Shawnee tribe whose support is sought by both sides in the somewhat larger conflict. Plenty of tomahawk action, duplicity, … read the rest.
