After much coaxing from her children, in February 1966, Jennie
wrote this story. She was 80 years old at the time.
The late 1890s was a turbulent time in Indian Territory -
especially for star-crossed lovers Osi, a full-blooded Chickasaw,
and Koi, a beautiful young maiden of mixed-blood. When Neville
Cooper, a white attorney from Chicago, came to town, their romance
was put to the test. His arrival was like a stone dropped into the
quiet waters of Pennington Creek, rippling outward to change the
course of history for the entire village. During this time, many
unsavory characters came to the Territory to scheme and steal
Indian lands, and Cooper was one of the worst. Contracted by the
federal government to assign the Indians of the Five Civilized
Tribes a roll number, he also illegally assigned many unqualified
recipients role numbers for his own personal gain. His nefarious
actions affected everyone in ways none could have anticipated. The
joys and hardships endured by the Chickasaws come through this
Native American story loud and clear in a story of love, heartache,
separation, promises, family obligations and cultural identity.
Thirty North American Indian tribes are represented in this
compilation of unusual native recipes. Traditional, as well as,
modern versions are preserved in this cookbook.
