New book delves into murderous history of Osage reign of terror

Writer David Grann always believed that the most horrific aspect of any real-life crime story was the crime itself — the evil that men will do to their fellow men.

Then, he came to Osage County.

Grann, a staff writer with the New Yorker who wrote the best-selling “The Lost City of Z,” which inspired the recent film, spent five years working on his latest book, “Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI.”

The Osage Nation, like many other American Indian nations, had been systematically forced out of their native lands and resettled in what is now Oklahoma. When settlers began to carve parcels out of present-day Osage County for themselves, the nation wisely retained all mineral rights.
