Field notes

The project’s stated method combines newspaper archives, obituaries, court reports, cemetery walks, family trees, and local histories rather than treating Oklahoma as a generic backdrop. Book 1, “The Bootlegger,” is listed as a 159-page paperback and Kindle title at $16.99, with ISBN-13 9798198813878. The site also sketches a future series and invites readers to suggest family or town material after reading the first book.
