"Drawing on a rare family archive and archival material from the Osage Nation, this book documents a unique relationship among white settlers, the Osage and African Americans in Oklahoma. The author's anthropological approach examines the lived experience of individuals and their nuanced and intersecting relationships as they negotiated cultural and geographic landscapes of oppression and technological change"--
