Extremely scarce and out-of-print FIRST EDITION! "The Peorias, A History of the Peoria Indian Tribe of Oklahoma, is co-authored and edited by members of the tribe themselves. The story they tell begins in the Old Northwest Territory in the 1600s and follows the unfolding destiny of the tribe as it migrates under pressure from the mounting hordes of white settlers into Missouri, Kansas, and, finally, northeastern Oklahoma. Along the way, treaty after treaty was struck with the United States Government. These agreements shaped and limited the evolution of Peoria culture in many ways, determining how and where the Peorias would live, and what rights they would retain as a people.".
