{"product_id":"2940170804351","title":"Zeke And Ned","description":"In \u003ci\u003eZeke and Ned,\u003c\/i\u003e Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana have created an American masterpiece: funny, exuberant, compelling, violent, and tragic. \u003cbr\u003e Set in the Cherokee Nation not Jong after the Civil War, \u003ci\u003eZeke and Ned\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of Ezekiel Proctor and Ned Christie, the last Cherokee warriors, living men whose story is not merely legend, but history -- their fates a consequence of the brutal policies which produced the Trail of Tears. As a child, Zeke Proctor walked the Trail of Tears from Georgia to the Indian Territory west of Arkansas, acquiring through that bitter struggle a fierce loyalty to the Cherokee way. Though a family man and a respected member of the Cherokee Senate, Zeke the man is an adventurous charmer, with a family roving eye. \u003cbr\u003e Ned Christie is tall and charismatic, with waist-length hair and a high-cheekboned handsomeness, that appeals to women all over the Going Snake District. But Ned's heart is set on one woman: Jewel Sixkiller Proctor, Zeke's beautiful young daughter. And Ned's long and determined resistance to the relentless pressure of white law unwittingly makes him a hero to the Cherokee people. \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eZeke and Ned\u003c\/i\u003e is a powerful, affecting work dramatizing the long Cherokee struggle against white authority. It is, ultimately, a moving tale about love, honour, loyalty, heroism, and the human condition.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47098538098928,"sku":"2940170804351","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170804351_p0.jpg?v=1763718092","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170804351","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
