Sinopsis

This historical fiction follows the journey of Esther McLish, a Choctaw-Cherokee woman, after the tragic death of her Chickasaw husband leaves her a widow, just before the birth of their son. Determined to have her son added to the Dawes Rolls, Esther is forced to relive all of her life's tragedies, as she must repeatedly testify on his behalf before the men of the Dawes Commission, who hardly seem to believe her. Can she succeed against all odds? Based on accounts of real people and events from the days of Indian Territory, Little Bird tells the story of one woman's bravery in the face of heartbreak and misfortune.
