• W251013089 abstract "A History of the Osage People. 2nd ed. LOUIS F. BURNS. University of Alabama Press, Tuscaloosa, 2004. 576 pp., illus., biblio., index. $80.00 (cloth), ISBN 0-8173-1319-2; $39.95 (paper), ISBN 0-8173-5018-7. Reviewed by Roger M. Carpenter An important yet frequently overlooked people in the history of the trans-Mississippi west, the Osages at one time populated and dominated large swaths of present-day Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. Louis F. Burns, a member of the tribe's Mottled Eagle Clan and author of books on Osage artwork, has revised his 1989 work, A History of the Osage People. Burns is not a historian, but he does use the standard scholarly apparatus of the discipline, namely written sources, usually cited in copious endnotes. But when he seeks to combine the methods of the historian with the native tradition of the oral narrative, Burns unintentionally reveals some of the problems inherent in writing Native American history. The two modes of history-the traditional use of written sources by historians and the oral narratives of native people-are combined in such a way that is often unsatisfying, and sometimes confusing to the reader. Adding to the confusion is Burns's unfortunate tendency to ramble and to insert strange non sequiturs that often interfere with the story he is trying to tell. While the book is a thoroughly detailed account of Osage history, it is also a story that the reader will often have a hard time following. Burns organizes the book into six parts. Part one covers the Osage from approximately 1200 to the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. Part two looks at the Osage relations with the United States up to 1850. Part three examines a period of only fifteen years, but one that is significant in Osage history: the first large-scale epidemic of European diseases among the tribe and their involvement in the American Civil War. Part four deals with the treaties the Osage signed with the federal government in the years after the War Between the States, and their being placed on reservations. Part 5 looks at the disappearance of the buffalo, a disaster for not only the Osage, but all Plains Indian peoples. This portion of the book also looks at the effects of the Dawes Act and the attempts by Indian agents to civilize the Osages. Part 6 examines the period from 1906 to the present. Like other native peoples, the Osage surrendered much of their land to the United States by treaty. Unlike other native peoples however, the Osage retained the mineral rights, meaning that in the Oklahoma oil boom of the early twentieth century, many Osages did very well financially. Burns begins his book by retelling many of the Osage origin stories and myths. However, a glaring weakness of the book becomes apparent right away. …" @default.
