Description

By Ann Strange Owl-Raben & Sharon L. Arms

“My name is Annie Grace Strange Owl. My Cheyanne name is Måxaáéhma’héone, or Medicine Eagle Feather Woman. I was born in Birney Village, Montana, on the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation. These are my memories.”

In this chronicle, take a journey back in time to the Depression-era world of Ann’s birthplace, Birney Village, Montana. Part of only the second generation to be born on the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, Ann recounts vivid stories of growing up in a one-room cabin with a family of 13 and pays homage to the lives of the ancestors who preceded her. She traces the long, winding path that took her from the reservation to the city, and finally to Eagle Plume’s, a world-renowned trading post high in the Colorado Rockies. Turn these pages and imagine Ann’s soft voice sharing the adventures of her life with you. It is a life well lived, and a cultural odyssey into a unique version of the American West. Measures 9″ x 6″; 146 pages
