Synopsis "Little Stories of Frontier Denison"

Founded by the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad in 1872 as it built south through Indian Territory, Denison was a railhead for cattle shipment and a key entry point for those seeking their fortunes in the West. For the next forty years, B.C. Murray's newspapers chronicled every notable event in the region. In 1910 and 1911, Murray published in his "Sunday Gazetteer" two series called "Little Stories of Denison" and "Little Stories of the Past." This book brings together Murray's delightful recollections of frontier characters male and female, local gambling and sporting exploits, the growth of his frontier community, and camping and hunting trips in the wilderness of Indian Territory. Murray was a gifted stylist as well as an adventurous, inquisitive observer and interviewer. In addition to providing much fun and factual information useful to historians, this book contains numerous illustrations and material tracing Murray's own extraordinary life.
