While a fictional story that takes liberties with present day boundaries, it is filled with references to actual historical events. A plain and unassuming pouch, originally belonging to an elderly Ioway Indian and handed down through generations, is the underlying mystery woven throughout a web of intrigue that includes trickery and murder.

The scope is a sweeping story of greed and betrayal, love and hatred, political ambition and power. It follows the twists and turns of a host of families, from those that eventually landed in America ready to make their fortunes in whatever way possible to America’s own native citizens struggling to preserve the land and way of life. "I found Pahutchae’s Pouch by vehoae to be an ambitious novel in the vein of James A. ~ Greg Rodgers, Choctaw Storyteller, author of "The Ghost of Mingo Creek and other Spooky Oklahoma Legends" Those unfamiliar will find it eye-opening, to say the least." Scholars familiar with Native American issues will find this volume useful in building a better understanding and knowledge base. Linking primary sources from archival records with a strong understanding of actual Native American history, vehoae strikes a well-deserved blow against authors of revisionist history. The convenient erasure of American Indian perspective and influence on America's past is central to the discussion. This book, based on what must have included heroic efforts of research, illustrates the longstanding damage on American history caused by the 'social amnesia' of dominant Euro-American culture.
