| Summary |
In an unknown year (either 1800, 1801, or 1802 according to the later recollection of his brother) was born Hannali Innominee of the Okla Hannali District of the Choctaw Nation. Hannali would be a big man and would almost exactly fill a century. Hannali was a farmer, a blacksmith, a boatbuilder, a ferryman, a distiller, a tanner, and the founder of an estate that was a town. He waited a long time to get married, but, when he did, he married three women of three different races on three successive days. He was a civilized man who sometimes painted his face and body and whooped and hollered with the loudest of them. And when he was in his nineties and he decided it was time to die, he greeted that event with the same "Choctaw chuckle" that had borne him through life. "Hannali is a buffalo bull of a man who should become one of the enduring characters in the literature of the American Indian." "Extraordinary authenticity…Compressing the entire nineteenth-century history of the Oklahoma Choctaw and the Plains Indian into a saga centered about one man, Lafferty manages to capture the last of the Indian's heroic ages." |
