Event Details

We are pleased to present the LBPL's Historical Fiction Book Club, led by librarian Jakea Williamson. This is an in-person program taking place on the 2nd floor of the Library. This month's book is Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI by David Grann.

In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world were members of the Osage Nation in Oklahoma. After oil was discovered beneath their land, the Osage rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to study in Europe.Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off.
