xii, 291 pages ; 24 cm Based on the termination of the Klamath Indian tribe by the U.S. government in 1961, this novel explores life on the reservation for three brothers and each brother's response to the termination settlement (each tribal member received a $43,000 in return for the 1-million acre reservation and the end of the Klamath's tribal status). Creek, college-bound and disgusted with reservation life, wants to take his money and run toward success in the white man's world. Chief, who represents the worst of reservation life, plans to spend his money on a new Cadillac and as much booze as he can possibly drink. Pokey, keeper of the Klamath traditions, plans on refusing the government payout and staying on his people's land. The brothers' separate plans set them on course for a deadly collision when the government money finally arrives
