Sundown / John Joseph Mathews ; with a introduction by Virginia H. Mathews.
Challenge Windzer, the mixed-blood protagonist of this compelling autobiographical novel, was born at the beginning of the twentieth century "when the god of the great Osages was still dominant over the wild prairie and the blackjack hills" of northeastern Oklahoma Territory. Named by his father to be "a challenege to the disinheritors of his people," Windzer finds it hard to fulfill his destiny, despite oil money, a university education, and the opportunities presented by the Great War and the roaring twenties.
