Glimpses of Our Past

A Look Back at Three Forks History is a compilation and expansion upon the popular column “Three Rivers History” written by Jonita Mullins and published weekly in the Muskogee Phoenix. Arranged chronologically, the book covers Oklahoma history in the Three Forks region from the time of the ancient Calf Creek culture to the time of statehood. The Three Forks region has some of the oldest and most culturally diverse history of a young state that celebrated its centennial in 2007. Much of the early events of significance in Oklahoma’s colorful past were centered in the Three Forks area.
