Title: The Chickasaw rancher
Description: "First published in 1960, Neil R. Johnson's The Chickasaw Rancher, Revised Edition, tells the story of Montford T. Johnson and the mixed and intermarried Chickasaw settlements of Oklahoma. Abandoned by his father after his mother's death and then left on his own following his grandmother's passing in 1858, Johnson had control of a piece of land in the northern part of the Chickasaw Nation in what is now Oklahoma.".

"The Chickasaw Rancher follows Montford T. Johnson's family and friends for the next fifty years. Neil R. Johnson desribes the work, the ranch parties, cattle rustling, gun fights, tornadoes, encroachment of white settlers, the run of 1889, the hard deaths of many along the way, and the rise, fall, and the revival of the Chickasaw Nation.".

"Including more than fifty previously unavailable photographs, illustrations, and maps, this revised edition of The Chickasaw Rancher, edited by C. Neil Kinglsey - grandson of Neil R. Johnson - is the perfect addition to any reader's collection of the history of the American West."--BOOK JACKET.
