DESCRIPTION:
The Osages of Missouri, American Indian dynasty, refusing to submit before an encroaching new world A humble, gifted man, sacrificing his major league baseball career to fight for his country and become a true hero An army officer, obscure but with vision, cheating death to rise to supreme commander amidst horrific warfare and help preserve the Union The weather beast, a gigantic tornado, ripping over peak and across plain, killing more than ever before or since A proud ethnic school, competing for social equality on a basketball court, and other small school teams, proving themselves champions with character
Jack G. Flagg said Very diversified reading.. Excellent research and having lived in Missouri, I knew some of the people. It was good to know more about the Indians in our state.. William Morris said Legends is a collection of essays on parts of Missouri. Legends is a collection of essays on parts of Missouri history. They are well written and interesting, but I couldn't make out any common theme among them or if there was even supposed to be one.
