The Indian Battle at Claremore Mound

The Indian Battle at Claremore Mound near Claremore, Oklahoma, occurred in 1817 between the Osage and Cherokee Indian tribes. The Osage were attacked by the Cherokee and the ensuing battle was devastating to the Osage Indians. In this exciting and informative tale, Running Brook, a young Indian maiden, tells the story of her great-great-great-grandfather, who survived the attack. The story was written with middle school children in mind; however, I believe that anyone might enjoy the story.
