'The Chief of the Redskins' is one of the most popular stories by the famous American writer O. Henry (1862-1910). Sam and Bill Driscoll have no idea what consequences the kidnapping of Ebenezer Dorset, Esquire's son may lead to. The writer also became famous for his stories 'The Pharaoh and the Chorale', 'The Detectives', 'The Moment of Victory', 'Law and Order', 'The Day We Celebrate', 'A Thousand Dollars', 'The Bagdad Bird' and 'The Order of the Golden Ring'. O. Henry, whose real name was William Sydney Porter, is considered the founder of the 'fairy tale of the big city' genre, where sparkling humor is combined with deep philosophical meaning.
