Описание: Winner of the Great Plains Distinguished Book Prize, Center for Great Plains Studies A Kansas Notable Book The exodus of the Northern Cheyennes in 1878 and 1879, an attempt to flee from Indian Territory to their Montana homeland, is an iconic event in American Indian history. It also looms large in the history of towns like Oberlin, Kansas, where Cheyenne warriors killed more than forty settlers. The story has been told by historians and novelists, and on film. Now James N. Leiker and Ramon Powers examine the recollections of Indians and settlers and their descendants, considering local history, mass media, and literature to draw thought-provoking conclusions. "The Cheyennes' flight," they write, "left white and Indian bones alike scattered along its route from Oklahoma to Montana." The authors depict a West whose diverse peoples-Euro-American and Native American-seek to preserve their heritage through memory and history. "The authors do not sacrifice the power of the story itself . . . one of the most dramatic, touching, and disturbing of its time." Elliott West, author of The Last Indian War: The Nez Perce Story "Leiker and Powers significantly add to the conversation about how a shared experience of violence solidifies a group and reshapes its identity, particularly for Euro-American settlers."-Journal of American History "This important book provides a deep look into the historical context of the Cheyennes' flight, the extent of its investigation making it superior to previous scholarship."-Great Plains Quarterly James N. Leiker, author of Racial Borders: Black Soldiers along the Rio Grande, is Associate Professor of History, Johnson County Community College, Overland Park, Kansas. Ramon Powers, formerly Executive Director of the Kansas State Historical Society, is author of articles on Plains Indians history.

Описание: Reclaiming My Strength is the story of Pittsburgh native Cheyenne Martin, now living in Los Angeles, an active, outgoing, fun-loving woman who had a mysterious illness that went undiagnosed for nearly a year. But she didn't let that stop her. She turned the experience into a positive journey of change and success. A self-proclaimed alpha-female, Cheyenne didn't give up hope, didn't feel sorry for herself, and didn't blame the world for her problems. She became educated and made the necessary lifestyle changes to not only manage her illness but also get back on her feet and continue to lead a healthy, prosperous life. An emotional roller coaster, Reclaiming My Strength takes us on Cheyenne's journey of sickness, uncertainty, and tragic loss and finding the strength to persevere even through the darkest of times.

Описание: My entire life has revolved around one goal: get into medical school. When it happens I should celebrate with champagne and streamers and a bouncy castle-right?Instead, my heart feels like it's being ripped in two-follow my dreams or follow my heart? I can thank Chase Westbrook for that.He's my brother's best friend. He also happens to be what wet dreams are made of. He's absolutely perfect and he's in love with me-he's also incredibly persistent. He's busy chasing me while I'm focused on chasing my dreams.I'm trying to have my cake and eat it too. I won't ask him to wait for me, but I hope he does anyway. I can't let anything distract me or get in the way of my goals-and his blond hair, blue eyes, and washboard abs would be a major distraction.He tells me he loves me, so I push him away in grandiose fashion. But Chase Westbrook isn't a quitter, and if he keeps chasing me I'm going to get caught.

Описание: Selected for the 2021 Donald L. Fixico Award for Best Book on American Indian and Canadian First Nations History(Volume 2 of 2) Killsback, a citizen of the Northern Cheyenne Nation, reconstructs and rekindles an ancient Cheyenne world--ways of living and thinking that became casualties of colonization and forced assimilation. Spanning more than a millennium of antiquity and recovering stories and ideas interpreted from a Cheyenne worldview, the works' joint purpose is rooted as much in a decolonization roadmap as it is in preservation of culture and identity for the next generations of Cheyenne people. Dividing the story of the Cheyenne Nation into pre- and post-contact, A Sacred People and A Sovereign People lay out indigenously conceived possibilities for employing traditional worldviews to replace unhealthy and dysfunctional ones bred of territorial, cultural, and psychological colonization.
