His story is told against the background of the old Osage homeland, the present state of Oklahoma, for by the frontier had moved westward and Johnny, a restless man who preferred the wilderness unspoiled by civilization, moved with it and became a partner in his brother-in-law's trading post. To such a man, the arrival of the group of missionaries to "improve"the Osages is far from welcome.

And to Judith Lowell, the young teacher dedicated to educating Osage children according to the laws of God and the White Man, Johnny's openly expressed admiration for Osage ways is shocking and inexplicable. But both of them are honest and brave enough to dare to open their minds and hearts to convictions other than their own. The touching love story of Johnny and Judith is set against a dark and bloody background of raids and massacres in the bitter feud between Osages and Cherokees - a feud in which the U.

Judith was prime, proper, and strait-laced but The main character of this book is Johnny Osage or Jonathan Fowler, son of Hannah Fowler, brother of Rebecca. Many of the characters in this book were authentic. This is one reason I like to read Giles. She works history into the story so effortlessly.
History is there but easily missed if not looked for. I wondered if Giles wrote Johnny Osage for men. It is also the first book with swearing, which is befitting men, I suppose. At least it is more authentic in this setting and would appeal to men. It would be interesting to know if men read this book when it was published in This book is the beginning of a two book series. Voyage to Santa Fe is the continuance. Both are well worth reading. Feb 23, Stacy Reynolds rated it really liked it.

But then one day, I thought it was a little silly to have a book in my house as decoration that I had never even opened up. So I sat down and in a couple of days I finished this book. It was a easy, steady read. There was enough flucuation between action and romance to keep me interest I bought this book at an antique mall because I liked the way the cover looked my version is not like the one pictured here.
There was enough flucuation between action and romance to keep me interested.
I would have liked deeper development of the characters, but it's only pages, so I guess that's a limited space to really get to know the characters. It opened my curiosity to the frontier era and I'm sure I'll look for more books set in this time. Jan 22, Greta Marlow rated it it was ok. I was really disappointed in this book. Giles wrote one of the books Hannah Fowler that was a favorite when I was a teenager devouring all the historical fiction I could get my hands on.
I've had Johnny Osage on my bookshelf for a while; since it's about roughly the same time period and set in the same place as the two novels I've written, I didn't want to chance letting myself be subconsciously influenced. Well, I don't think I should have worried. This book had some parts that hearkened back I was really disappointed in this book.
This book had some parts that hearkened back to Hannah Fowler , but for the most part, I found it to be very tedious and too intent on making Johnny out to be a "tortured soul.

When reading this story, I can appreciate all the hardships my ancestors might have faced nearly years ago, when this country was young and the dangers and challenges were many. Apr 02, Mitzi rated it really liked it Shelves: I'm beginning to believe JHG can't write a bad book - I've not read them all yet, but I have yet to read one that I didn't enjoy.
That being said, this one didn't quite "grab" me as much as some of the others have - but I think it was probably more of a personal preference thing than any lack in the book itself. It was nice to read more about the children of my beloved Hannah Fowler - especially Stephen and Rebecca from The Believers
