CHICKASAW
PRESS
WHITE DOG
PRESS
Created in response to the basic need of the Chickasaws to own their history, Chickasaw Press was established as an entity of the Chickasaw Nation in 2006.
The addition of White Dog Press as a secondary
imprint under the Chickasaw Press, allows Chickasaw Press to build upon its goal of preserving, perpetuating, and providing an awareness of Chickasaw
history and culture by embracing popular genres and
creative projects that do not fit under the umbrella
of research and scholarship – the primary focus of
projects currently published under the Chickasaw
Press label.

CHICKASAW
PRESS GOAL
The goal of Chickasaw Press is to preserve, perpetuate, and provide an awareness of Chickasaw history
and culture by: generating and publishing research
and scholarship about Chickasaw history and culture;
making such scholarship accessible to Chickasaw
people; exercising “cultural and intellectual sovereignty” by adhering to ethical and culturally appropriate research and publication practices; providing
an outlet for Chickasaw authors and scholars.
White Dog Press affords us the opportunity to further
share the history, culture, and experiences of the
Chickasaw people through literary categories such
as historical fiction, children’s books, young-adult literature, how-to books, travel writing, creative or narrative non-fiction, poetry, and memoirs.
WHITE DOG
PRESS GOAL
The goal of White Dog Press is to share the culture,
experiences, and history of the Chickasaw through
exceptional published works that inspire creativity,
ignite the imagination, and inform readers.
Chickasaw Press publications enable the tribe to
share its rich history and culture with non-Chickasaws and educate Chickasaw tribal members, thus
enhancing relationships with the greater community and creating an understanding of Chickasaw
self-governance and sovereignty.

A Chickasaw Dictionary holds an honored place in
Chickasaw and native literary history as the first published dictionary of our tribe’s language. It has served
as an important reference guide ever since. Compiled
at the behest of former Chickasaw Governor Overton
James, the dictionary took Vinnie May Humes and her
husband, Reverend Jesse Humes, two and half years
to complete. Jesse Humes died in 1966, just as the
first draft was completed. Mrs. Humes finished the
work herself, in honor of her husband.

The Chickasaw Lives series contains articles and
essays of Chickasaw history and culture. Volume One
traces the story of the Chickasaws through a series
of challenges from prehistory to the modern era.
Topics include the Chickasaw’s epic triumph against
Hernando de Soto, European colonial manipulations
and wars, removal to Indian Territory, the land-allotment period, and the Chickasaw Nation’s revitalization during the twentieth century.
The third volume of the series presents stories of
cultural and historic preservation efforts, profiles
of notable Chickasaw personalities of the twentieth
century, and essays on topics such as the significance
of the 1729 Natchez uprising, and Piominko’s famous
meeting with George Washington on July 11, 1794, as
recorded by future President John Quincy Adams.

eighteenth-century Chickasaw culture, a Chickasaw’s struggle with the aftermath of the 1995
bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal building, and the tribe’s role in the construction of the

Ofi' Tohbi', the white dog from the Chickasaw’s
ancient migration story, serves as a guide for children ages five through twelve through the Chickasaw
Journeys Activity Book, an expedition into activities
that incorporate Chickasaw history, language, and
culture. Many activities can be completed from home,
and others are guides to historical and cultural sites
in the Chickasaw Nation. Children earn trade beads
during visits, and completion earns membership in
the Ofi' Tohbi' Club, with a club patch and a coin.
Phillip Carroll Morgan profiles the experiences of
the Chickasaw people during the twentieth century,
from the suppression of their government to the resurgence of their nation. A sequel to the award-winning Chickasaw Unconquered and Unconquerable,
the equally beautiful volume features more than one
hundred new images and stunning portraits of tribal
elders and other subjects by celebrated Oklahoma
photographer David Fitzgerald and includes historical photographs from the Chickasaw Nation archives.

A work that combines intensive scholarly research
with a compelling narrative that reads like a novel,
Chickasaw Removal uncovers and adds authoritative
detail to a dark and defining moment in American and
Native history. Amanda L. Paige, Fuller L. Bumpers,
and Daniel F. Littlefield Jr. highlight the character and
distinctive determination of the Chickasaw people
during the trial of the Removal period and investigate the complex frauds that plundered the tribe’s
once vast wealth.
The first book published by Chickasaw Press, Chickasaw Unconquered and Unconquerable traces history
from our ancient homelands in the Southeast to the
thriving nation of today and proves why the Chickasaw people are considered one of the most resilient cultures in America. Images by award-winning
photographer David Fitzgerald and insightful essays
by Chickasaw writers Jeannie Barbour, Amanda
Cobb-Greetham, and Linda Hogan highlight the incredible story.

Uprising! Woody Crumbo’s Indian Art tells the compelling story of the life of Woodrow “Woody” Crumbo
(1912–1989) in parallel with the evolution of American
Indian art. An accomplished Native dancer, flutist, silversmith, and poet, Crumbo is best known today for
his oil paintings and silkscreens, revolutionary artworks that were discounted by many critics at the
beginning, but that ultimately began the movement
that put more Indian art into museums of fine art.

AS TOLD THROUGH ROBIN GUNNING
In August 2004, Chickasaw artist Mike Larsen approached Chickasaw Nation leaders with an idea to
honor his tribe’s living elders by immortalizing them
in art. Accompanied by his wife, Martha, he began a
creative process that turned into a personal journey
and led to the twenty-four remarkable paintings and
dozens of sketches reproduced in this volume, accompanied by touching narratives based on Martha
Larsen’s interviews.
The voice of James Wenonah Paul Gunning, as
written by her son, Robin Gunning, narrates this captivating story that combines the tragic, the triumphant, the heartwarming, and often the madcap –
all the shades of family life – into an unforgettable
and touching portrait of the historic Paul family of
Pauls Valley.

The Chickasaw Press is gaining notice not only among
book publishers and organizations that promote literacy and literature but also from public efforts that
support Native American and ethnic enterprises. The
Harvard Project on American Indian Development,
an effort sponsored by Harvard University’s John
F. Kennedy School of Government, recognized the
Chickasaw Press in 2008 with its Honoring Nations
award, stating: “The Press publishes books written
by Chickasaw citizens, using the highest standards
of professional editing and production. In doing so,
it gives new life to an ancient storytelling tradition.”
