Abstract:
Born in 1924, Jerry Wolfe is a respected elder of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. He is a link to the past for the Cherokees of today as he recounts the traditional tribal legends and stories, memories of growing up in Cherokee and attending the Cherokee boarding school, and sharing his knowledge of the game of Cherokee stickball.
