Download or read book History of Methodism in Oklahoma, Vol. 1 written by Sidney Henry Babcock and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Methodism in Oklahoma, Vol. 1: Story of Indian Mission Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South; 1935 The first great mission of the Methodist Church in the United States was to the Indians. The purpose of this book is to give a story of that mission from its beginning in the East in 1820 until the close of the Indian Mission Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South in 1896. After the division of the Metho dist Church in 1844, this story will deal especially with the work of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. In 1910 when the Oklahoma Conference, succes sor to the Indian Mission Conference, was divided into the East Oklahoma Conference and the West Oklahoma Conference, the East Oklahoma Conference fell heir to all the records and history of the Indian Mission Conference. The East Oklahoma Conference at its session in 1926 appointed the Reverend J ohn Y. Bryce to prepare for publication a history of Methodism in Oklahoma. In response to that request, with much labor and expense, he gathered together the broken fragments of the labors of the men of the church dur ing the period. When the two Conferences were united under the name, Oklahoma Conference, the Reverend Sidney H. Babcock was added to the Historical Commission and asked to aid in the preparation of the history. His task was to organize the material assembled, relate it to contemporaneous history and weave the story. The Methodist Church had a vital part in the maintenance of order, the promotion of education and the building of a civilization during the constant changes that were occasioned by the efforts of the United States government first, to colonize the Indians in a territory all their own, and aid the various tribes to set up governments under their own national coun cils; and then, to undo all that had been done by de stroying the national integrity of the various Indian nations and uniting them under the Stars and Stripes.

Download or read book The University of Oklahoma written by David W. Levy and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the first in a projected three-volume definitive history, traces the University’s progress from territorial days to 1917. David W. Levy examines the people and events surrounding the school’s formation and development, chronicling the determined ambition of pioneers to transform a seemingly barren landscape into a place where a worthy institution of higher education could thrive. The University of Oklahoma was established by the territorial legislature in 1890. With that act, Norman became the educational center of the future state. Levy captures the many factors—academic, political, financial, religious—that shaped the University. Drawing on a great depth of research in primary documents, he depicts the University’s struggles to meet its goals as it confronted political interference, financial uncertainty, and troubles ranging from disastrous fires to populist witch hunts. Yet he also portrays determined teachers and optimistic students who understood the value of a college education. Written in an engaging style and enhanced by an array of historical photographs, this volume is a testimony to the citizens who overcame formidable obstacles to build a school that satisfied their ambitions and embodied their hopes for the future.

Book Synopsis Grappling with Demon Rum by : James E. Klein
Download or read book Grappling with Demon Rum written by James E. Klein and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social classes collide over morality and social propriety in a brand-new state Well before the Volstead (or National Prohibition) Act of 1919, Oklahoma was dry. Oklahomans banned liquor at their state’s inception in 1907 and maintained the ban even after the repeal of national prohibition. In this book, James E. Klein examines the social and cultural conflicts that led Oklahomans to outlaw liquor and discusses the economic and political consequences of the ban. Grappling with Demon Rum identifies who favored and who opposed prohibition, showing that its proponents were largely middle-class citizens who disdained public drinking establishments and who sought respectability for a young state still considered a frontier society. Klein tells how the Oklahoma Anti-Saloon League orchestrated a dry campaign to raise moral standards, reduce crime, and improve the quality of life, twice convincing voters to support prohibition. Going beyond the usual evangelical-versus-ritualist, rural-versus-urban, and ethnocultural oppositions used by other historians to explain prohibition, Klein shows that Oklahoma’s immigrant and Catholic populations were too small to account for those voting against the measure—or for the large customer base that supported bootleggers. He points instead to the large number of working-class Oklahomans who patronized saloons, whether legal or not, and focuses on class conflict in early efforts to control alcohol. He also describes the trials of enforcement officers who worked to plug leaks in statewide and later national prohibition. A cultural and social history of liquor in early Oklahoma, Grappling with Demon Rum provides a fresh look at crusaders against vice at the regional level. In portraying this conflict between middle- and working-class definitions of social propriety, Klein provides new insight into forces at work throughout America during the Progressive Era.
