Description

Although coverage chronologically spans from prehistory to the present| the emphasis is on the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It is written in a readable| flowing manner and is deeply rooted in native traditions and lore. The title is a reference to a message sent by President Andrew Jackson to the Choctaws and Chickasaws indicating that| as a friend| he planned to move the people to the Trans-Mississippi West to “land of their own| which they shall possess as long as grass grows or water runs.”
