The untold story of vengeance, blood, and the British flag at Wheeling "Wheeling" is an English corruption of the Delaware word, Weel-lunk meaning literally "Place of the Skull" in the Delaware language. This book is about the early history of Wheeling, now West Virginia. The aim of this book is to address the mystery and what happened in Wheeling's earliest history that made a long lasting impression on the Native Americans in the Ohio Country until their expulsion from Indian lands by 1800.
