John Joseph Mathews, a member of the Osage Indian tribe, born in Pawhuska, Oklahoma, the Mathews home adjoining the Osage Agency tells the history of a proud, noble people, physically and spiritually self-sufficient; a homogenious race living in simplicity of understanding with one another and in a heroic culture. It is the story of how these people were driven from their ancestral empire, herded into a restricted reservation and brought into contact, almost within a generation, with the machine-dominated culture of the Americans.
