Eastern Oklahoma's Forgotten Frontier:

An in-depth look at frontier life in Eastern Oklahoma. In the early nineteenth century, new arrivals began making their way into the rugged lands of Eastern Oklahoma, then Indian Territory. These included European settlers and the tribes who were forcibly relocated to the territory after 1830. Their biographies make up stories of over 200 years, including origin of towns and enterprises to profiles of pioneers of the early days of the Oklahoma frontier. $24.99

Murder and Mayhem in Northeast Oklahoma:

Northeast Oklahoma was part of Indian Territory during the 1800’s. Many fugitives from US justice sought refuge in its hills and hollows, including Henry Starr and Cherokee Bill. Ater Oklahoma statehood, in 1907, little changed and the area remained a hideout for outlaws into the gangster era of the 1930’s -- outlaws such as Pretty Boy Floyd hiding out in the Cookson Hills. Even in modern times, the area has seen its share of desperate characters and notorious incidents. Award winning author Larry Wood describes many of these. $24.99
