Cherokee Cavaliers: Forty Years of Cherokee History as Told in the Correspondence of the Ridge-Watie-Boudinot FamilyEdward Everett Dale, Gaston Litton "A few of the letters included in this volume were obtained from the libraries of the University of Texas and the Northeastern state teachers' college at Tahlequah, Oklahoma. One or two were secured from the private collection of Professor T.L. Ballenger ... Nearly all of them, however, together with some two thousand more ... are to be found in the Frank Phillips collection of southwestern history at the University of Oklahoma."--Preface. |
