#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A twisting, haunting true-life murder mystery about one of the most monstrous crimes in American history, from the author of The Wager and The Lost City of Z, “one of the preeminent adventure and true-crime writers working today."—New York Magazine • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST • NOW A MARTIN SCORSESE PICTURE “A shocking whodunit…What more could fans of true-crime thrillers ask?”—USA Today “A masterful work of literary journalism crafted with the urgency of a mystery.” —The Boston Globe In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world were members of the Osage Nation in Oklahoma. After oil was discovered beneath their land, the Osage rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to study in Europe. Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off. The family of an Osage woman, Mollie Burkhart, became a prime target. One of her relatives was shot. Another was poisoned. And it was just the beginning, as more and more Osage were dying under mysterious circumstances, and many of those who dared to investigate the killings were themselves murdered. As the death toll rose, the newly created FBI took up the case, and the young director, J. Edgar Hoover, turned to a former Texas Ranger named Tom White to try to unravel the mystery. White put together an undercover team, including a Native American agent who infiltrated the region, and together with the Osage began to expose one of the most chilling conspiracies in American history.

Indigenous women in Canada have been the victims of violence for decades. Mostly, the horrific crimes have been ignored, the victims and their families silenced by indifference and racism. Before there was a national inquiry into this national scandal, before it was revealed that thousands of First Nations, Métis and Inuit women had been murdered or were missing, journalist Warren Goulding exposed the sad truth behind the killing of four women in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Just Another Indian: A Serial Killer and Canada's Indifference raises troubling questions about the police investigation into these chilling crimes and asks why the media and mainstream society chose to look away when this largely marginalized sector of the population was under attack. The stories of Eva Taysup, Calinda Waterhen, Shelley Napope and Mary Jane Serloin are heartbreaking. Their killer, John Martin Crawford, committed unspeakable acts on these four vulnerable women. Were there other victims? Read Chapter One. . . An award-winning non-fiction book, Just Another Indian has been praised for laying out for public examination how systemic racism is alive and well in Canada.

Over the past twenty-five years, Carson's legacy has been the topic of intense debate among western historians, many who have suggested that Carson was racist, that he sought out and killed Navajos, destroying their sheep and food supply - that he played a major role in the forced removal of the Navajos from their traditional homelands in the Southwest. Though this theory has gained credence with the public, other scholars dispute those accounts and portray Carson, who lived alongside Indians most of his life, as a kind man who reluctantly fought several tribes only after joining the army. Carson's true actions and motivations are the subject of Kit Carson: Indian Fighter or Indian Killer? This volume brings together a distinguished group of western historians who explore the latest research on Carson in a attempt to separate fact from fiction by shedding further light on Carson's life.
