Abstract
In Women of Oklahoma, Linda Williams Reese traces the experiences of African American, Native American, and white women from the creation of Oklahoma Territory in 1890 to the decade following statehood. Using a wealth of source material including diaries, letters, newspaper articles, oral histories, and census materials, Reese reconstructs the lives of Oklahoma women-offering a record of the past often overlooked in Oklahoma history prior to this important work.
