Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History and Civics of Oklahoma While Oklahoma is the youngest of the states, yet it had a considerable population almost a generation earlier than any of the states west of those that border the Mississippi, Texas alone excepted. Here we find much the best example of a prolonged effort of the aborigines of the United States to develop their own civilization in their own way. The history of this effort should be of interest to every student of American institutions. How much of this civilization was due to white influence and how much can be credited to Indian initiative must be left to the judgment of the reader. One of the chief benefits of historical study is the testing of authorities. No field offers a better opportunity for this than Oklahoma history. Almost all data relating to the Indian nations is so interwoven with myth and fiction that it is difficult, indeed, to separate authoritative facts from endless legends and weird tales of Indian life. So while this little book is presented in concise, and we trust simple, form, yet we have zealously sought to use in its preparation no source that will not bear most careful scrutiny. We have not hesitated, where possible, to incorporate the exact text of the source in order that the student will thus be brought in closer touch with the men and events that we seek to picture.
