Paperback. Condizione: New. A rediscovered novel portrays Cherokees in transitionJohn Milton Oskison was a mixed-blood Cherokee known for his writing and his activism on behalf of Indian causes. The Singing Bird, never before published, is quite possibly the first historical novel written by a Cherokee.Set in the 1840s and '50s, when conflict erupted between the Eastern and Western Cherokees after their removal to Indian Territory, The Singing Bird relates the adventures and tangled relationships of missionaries to the Cherokees, including the promiscuous, selfish Ellen, the ""Singing Bird"" of the title. The fictional characters mingle with such historical figures as Sequoyah and Sam Houston, embedding the novel in actual events.The Singing Bird is a vivid account of the Cherokees' genius for survival and celebrates Native American cultural complexity and revitalization.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'A Texas Titan' offers a compelling narrative exploration of the life and legacy of Sam Houston, one of the most towering and enigmatic figures in American history. Written by John M. Oskison, this biographical work traces Houston's extraordinary journey from his early days in Tennessee and his deep immersion in the culture of the Cherokee Nation to his pivotal role in the struggle for Texan independence.The story captures the raw energy of the American frontier, depicting Houston not merely as a soldier and politician, but as a man of complex character and iron will. Readers follow his ascent as he leads the Texan forces at the Battle of San Jacinto, eventually rising to become the first President of the Republic of Texas. Oskison's prose brings to life the political intrigue, personal sacrifices, and grand ambitions that defined Houston's career.Rich in historical detail and dramatic tension, 'A Texas Titan' serves as both an intimate portrait of a leader and a sweeping chronicle of the birth of a state. It remains an essential read for those interested in the legends of the West, the evolution of the United States during the nineteenth century, and the enduring spirit of the man who helped shape the destiny of Texas.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
