Book Description
The grandson of an Osage Indian, author Louis Burns wrote this primer to help persons of Osage descent trace their paternal lineage and to introduce researchers to Osage culture and the nuances of its language. The book opens with a discussion of the Osage dispersion from Missouri to Oklahoma and Kansas from about 1800 to 1870. Mr. Burns provides very helpful maps showing the concentration of the various tribal bands in each state. Next comes a summary of the richest sources of 19th-century Osage heritage, namely, Jesuit records, a great source of information concerning baptisms, marriages and interments; U.S. Government Annuity Rolls; and Osage Mission records, the best source of Osage family data. The aforementioned is followed by a list of tribal towns, as extracted from Jesuit records, and a list of Osage bands as found in the Annuity Rolls of 1878. When these sources are used in conjunction with the author's detailed listing of clans and their members, which furnishes names in both phonetic Osage and English, researchers stand a good chance of tracing their Native American heritage from about 1800 to the present. The balance of this carefully crafted volume focuses on aspects of the language, some knowledge of which is indispensable for successful research. Featured are an index to Osage names in Osage and in English, a listing of and indexes to kinship terms, a critical pronunciation key to Osage, and a conversion table for Osage Indian syllables. Mr. Burns' seminal work concludes with a bibliography of tribal literature.

Book Description
Who knew one small mistake-that just happened to go viral-would result in being exiled from my family and shunned by my coven? Not me. Yet here I am, in nowhere, Alaska, armed only with a laptop and my Pomeranian. But even witch magic can't prepare a girl for the freezing temperatures, murderous moose, or the abundance of hot men. Jack, Ty, and Aiden walked straight out of the freezing ocean like some mythical gods, water sluicing from their broad shoulders. What starts as burning attraction quickly turns into searing kisses and hot nights between the sheets. But something isn't right in this tiny Alaskan village. There aren't any tourists. There's no internet, and the locals shoo their children away when I walk past in the streets. There are secrets here I long to uncover. But not if that means the risk of exposing my own. Tempted is a 'why choose' paranormal romance perfect for readers who enjoy sassy heroines, sexy sea dragon shifter heroes, and enough steamy scenes to heat up even a cold Alaskan night. This is the first book of an ongoing trilogy.

Trauma and Discovery Sabrina Bryant stopped shifting when she was only ten. A traumatic incident that she can’t remember and is helpless to do anything to change so she can shift. After two failed relationships, she was beginning to believe there was a reason she was never good enough for her father. She was worthless and no one would want her. So, when he arranged a political mating for her with none other than Benjamin Hurst, she was left reeling. Benjamin Hurst grew up knowing his older brother would be the Alpha of their clan. It was something he was prepared for, and more than okay with. When his brother announced that he would be leaving, though, it thrust him into a position he was not prepared for. Alpha of the Hurst Family Clan. The two are forced together, feeling they have no choice in the matter and must figure things out as they go and where they stand with one another. Unable to shift, Sabrina has no clue Ben is her mate, but he can sense it, and is willing to do anything to keep her safe. When they learn Sabrina might be the only chance in defeating Pickens and his army, they find themselves fighting alongside the Independence Clan to save not only what they have just started to build, but the entire town. Will they be able to discover secrets kept hidden, and themselves before time runs out?
