Follow on Google News | New Book Celebrates the History of Oklahoma PanhandleVintage photographs and captions show Oklahoma’s Panhandle in a new light.
By: Erica Winters The book, written by Oklahoma Panhandle State University professor Sara Jane Richter, tells the tales of outlaws, college students, settlers, ranchers, native peoples, dust storms, immigrants, ghost towns, cattle, dinosaurs, lawmen, soldiers, and traders. “I have always wanted to promote the Panhandle, and with this book, I can finally do that!” Richter said. “The Panhandle is full of interesting people and has a lot of fascinating history.” Although the Panhandle often doesn't get the attention that it deserves, its history is full of stories interesting to people across the state, Richter added.
