Book Synopsis The Underground Reservation by : Terry P. Wilson
Book excerpt: Explores the effects of oil wealth on the Osage Inidians, focusing on the Osages' interactions with local non-Indians as well as on tribal politics, particularly the cultural and poitical right between full-bloods and mixed bloods that continues to the present day. Also documents the lawlessness, corruption, and occasional violence, arguing that the notorious happenings in the 1920s were part of a long history of systematic exploitation of the Osages.
