Description

Oklahoma, or “Okla Homma,” is a Choctaw word meaning “Red People.” In this collection, acclaimed storyteller Tim Tingle tells the stories of his people, the Choctaw People, the Okla Homma. For years, Tim has collected stories of the old folks, weaving traditional lore with stories from everyday life. “Walking the Choctaw Road “is a mixture of myth stories, historical accounts passed from generation to generation, and stories of Choctaw people living their lives in the here and now.

The Wordcraft Circle of Native American Writers and Storytellers selected Tim as “Contemporary Storyteller Of The Year” for 2001, and in 2002, Tim was the featured storyteller at the National Storyteller Festival in Jonesboro, Tennessee.
