    18 M O U N T A I N D I S C O V E R I E S General George Crook: a Military Man’s Ties Written by: Mary Reisinger to Mountain Maryland New Photography by: Lance C. Bell In the Western Maryland town of Oakland, a rambling home known as Crook’s Crest perches on a hilltop. A short section of roadway below is named Crook Street. One could be forgiven for thinking that a famous outlaw had influenced these names, but the “crook” in this case was General George Crook, renowned for his military skills both in conflicts with Native American Indians in the West and in the Civil War in the East. Crook was born in Taylorsville, Ohio, near Dayton, in 1830, of parents who had moved there from Maryland. Crook’s father belonged to a Baltimore County militia company believed to have partici- pated in the defense of Fort McHenry in the War of 1812. Crook attended West Point, graduating in 1852, and spent the rest of his life in the Army. He seems to have grasped the which he emphasized the importance of getting to know essence of leadership early in his life. His younger brother, the various leaders of the tribes. Crook, who had done when first placed in command of a military company, asked very poorly in studying French while he was at West Point, George for advice on being a leader. Crook’s response was, learned several West Coast Native American languages “Learn to command yourself and you will find no trouble well enough to be able to communicate in them.

  • N O R Th 24Th Str Eet W a Lk in G to Ur
    presents the NORTH 24TH STREET WALKING TOUR STREET WALKING 24TH NORTH North 24th Street is pretty quiet these days. There is a little noise from the barbershops and retail outlets that dot the streetscape. A couple of restau- rants are making a go of it just off the thoroughfare on Lake Street. And there’s a burgeoning arts scene. But the music that once enlivened the area is mostly silent. For blacks who began to reside in North Omaha during the early 20th century, 24th Street became known as the “Street of Dreams.” The area around 24th and Lake Streets emerged as a lively district of music clubs, theaters, restau- rants and retail shops. It Members of the Marching was a haven for enter- Majorettes during a parade passing tainment from the 1920s the intersection of 24th and Lake through the 1960s. in the 1950s. Photo courtesy Great Plains Black History Museum. The street also was important to Jewish settlers, who began to populate the area in the 1890s. They called the stretch of North 24th Street from Cuming to Lake Streets the “Miracle Mile.” Jewish historian Arthur Grossman described the street as “the arterial lifeline connecting homes, shops, and sundry suppliers of products and services necessary for the maintenance of Jewish life.” Blacks, Jews and other ethnicities coexisted peacefully for decades. In 1914, there were 17 grocery stores, five tailors, seven shoe repair shops and five second-hand stores on that stretch of North 24th Street alone, along with confectioners, barbers and butchers. Within four years, 15 of the businesses in the area were owned by blacks, including five restaurants.
