Cowboys, football, and the famous panhandle may stand out as prominent Oklahoma features, but the Sooner state is also home to bizarre places, personalities, events, and phenomena. These unique and quirky aspects are humorously displayed in Oklahoma Curiosities, a cross between a wacky news gazette, an almanac, and a humorous travel guide. Amusing stories and unique black and white photographs make this the perfect read for travelers, residents, and anyone interested in adventure and a good laugh.
Oklahoma Curiosities is part of a GPP homegrown series of state-specific books that describe, with humor and affection--and a healthy dose of attitude--the oddest, quirkiest, and most outlandish places, personalities, events, and phenomena found within the state's borders and in the chronicles of its history. The series provides a fun and accessible read for travelers and non travelers alike--a great armchair book with quirky black and white photographs throughout and maps for each region.
