High Desert Reckoning in Oregon Country

Autor

David H. Wilson Jr. grew up in Northern Ohio, but after months of canoeing in far northern Canada he left Ohio for the readily accessible wilderness of Oregon. He practiced employment law for thirty-five years and taught law as an adjunct at three law schools. Decades of exploring the mountains and waters east of the Cascade Mountains sparked a curiosity about those who preceded him to this remarkable land. The result, eight years later, is Northern Paiutes of the Malheur.
