Later McWhorter worked to complete his "Field History" of the Nez Perce, which was published posthumously in 1951 as "Hear Me, My Chiefs! Nez Perce History and Legend". His final piece of work covered the history of the Nez Perce in Washington State's Palouse region and the events following the end of the war of 1877. "On his deathbed, McWhorter made a request to his son, Virgil...to see his still untitled Field History through to publication." It was his dying wish that the voice of the Nez Perce people would be heard and told from their perspective. His son Virgil McWhorter completed the book in 1951.
