Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
The story of Tulsa's transformation from a nineteenth-century cow town into the "Oil Capital of the World" has been above ground for years, but a great reservoir of Tulsey Town's heritage has remained beneath the surface. These neglected tales include the dirigible flyover of 1929, the Hominy Indians' victory over the New York Giants and the legendary final performance of Spade Cooley, convicted killer and the self-proclaimed "King of Western Swing." From the horrors of the city's early race riot and the proud legacy of Greenwood (aka Little Africa or Black Wall Street) to Tulsa's iconic landmarks and unforgettable personalities, Steve Gerkin provides an evocative and enjoyable voyage through T-Town's hidden history.

He was born at Italy, Ellis county, Texas, April 28, 1891, and is a son of Benjamin L. And Leonore (calvert) Jopling, both of whom were natives of Texas. The father was born in Tarrant county, near Fort Worth, his birthplace being Johnson Station, a military post, for his father, George W. Jopling, went to Texas with General Worth and established the military post at Fort Worth. He served as a soldier of the Confederate army during the Civil war. He also built the first cotton gin in Tarrant county and was one of the prominent and influential men of Texas in his day. He likewise owned the first house erected in the county, the construction work being done by the Indians. Benjamin L. Jopling became a cattleman and ac quired extensive land holdings, devoting his entire attention to cattle raising for many years. He removed to Bellevue, Texas, and in 1908 came to Okla homa, where again he continued to concentrate his efforts and attention upon the raising of cattle. His religious faith is that of the Presbyterian church and fraternally he is connected with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
