But the women who first came to Oklahoma all had trials to face--and stories to tell. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this stirring collection, the women who settled what would become Oklahoma tell their own stories in their own words. From thousands of interviews conducted by the Work Projects Administration in 1936-37 and preserved in the Indian Pioneer Papers of Oklahoma, editors Terri M. Baker and Connie Oliver Henshaw have selected the words of women from a wide range of socioeconomic groups, ethnic backgrounds, and geographical locations to relate the pioneer experience as it was really lived. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Elegantly written, skillfully edited, \u003ci\u003eWomen Who Pioneered Oklahoma\u003c\/i\u003e reflects the everyday will and courage to survive of Oklahoma's founding mothers. It conveys the violence of a frontier culture set in a landscape of stark beauty where death was always just a heartbeat away. A vital part of the state centennial, theirs is the story of real Oklahoma, writ large--and in a distinctly female hand.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.61 x 8.49 x 5.6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 15, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51978430021933,"sku":"9780806138466","price":36.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/TzZZaVRPeEZrd2M0bTMxemh4T1diUT09.webp?v=1775805111","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/women-who-pioneered-oklahoma-stories-from-the-wpa-narratives-paperback","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
