Roadside History of Oklahoma

A guide through the state's rich past and diverse terrain along the clearly defined paths of its major and minor highways. The book is divided into 12 parts with such names as The Chisholm Trail, Land of the Osages, and Route 66. Each section begins with an area map and a short introduction, followed by a write-up for virtually every town. Interspersed throughout are excursions that take the reader off the main trail and historical highlights that tell stories about particularly interesting topics or colorful characters. With many b&w photographs. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or. Read more
