Denied acceptance and approval by the white people in Oregon Country, Margaret Jewett Bailey, the first novelist of the Northwest, faded into oblivion after an attempt was designed to ruin all copies of her book. Although she and her hubby William J. Bailey arrived in the middle-1830s and did the trick beside well-known historical figures as Jason Lee and John McLoughlin, today few know of the Baileys. Why? Their report is explosive. In 1835, William attained the Methodist Mission with an extended tomahawk gash in his face and later would avenge the harm; in 1837, Margaret was one of the primary seven white women to arrive by dispatch from eastern United States, and she quickly made foes of the missionaries but friends of the Kalapuyan Tribe. Their report presents surprising views of historical figures and occurrences from a perspective not usually seen. But the dialogue and one fictional family are masterpieces of the author RC Marlen, occurrences in this interesting book were written showing the accurate history of Oregon Country, 1835-1854.
