Book Synopsis The Red River Bridge War by : Rusty Williams
Download or read book The Red River Bridge War written by Rusty Williams and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, 2017 Oklahoma Book Award, sponsored by the Oklahoma Center for the Book Winner, 2016 Outstanding Book on Oklahoma History, sponsored by the Oklahoma Historical Society At the beginning of America’s Great Depression, Texas and Oklahoma armed up and went to war over a 75-cent toll bridge that connected their states across the Red River. It was a two-week affair marked by the presence of National Guardsmen with field artillery, Texas Rangers with itchy trigger fingers, angry mobs, Model T blockade runners, and even a costumed Native American peace delegation. Traffic backed up for miles, cutting off travel between the states. This conflict entertained newspaper readers nationwide during the summer of 1931, but the Red River Bridge War was a deadly serious affair for many rural Americans at a time when free bridges and passable roads could mean the difference between survival and starvation. The confrontation had national consequences, too: it marked an end to public acceptance of the privately owned ferries, toll bridges, and turnpikes that threatened to strangle American transportation in the automobile age. The Red River Bridge War: A Texas-Oklahoma Border Battle documents the day-to-day skirmishes of this unlikely conflict between two sovereign states, each struggling to help citizens get goods to market at a time of reduced tax revenue and little federal assistance. It also serves as a cautionary tale, providing historical context to the current trend of re-privatizing our nation’s highway infrastructure.

Download or read book Red Leaves written by Diana Bridge and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An especially beautiful new collection from a gifted poet whose individual voice is unlike any other. Like her three previous books this teems with vivid images often drawn from Indian or Chinese sources or the poet's own experience of those places. The final section, 'The Imprint of India' directly explores the impact of India, so crucial in her origins as a writer. However much of the book is closer to home. At its emotional chore is the deaths of her mother and brother in a single year - these dominate one section but pervade the whole book in a way that is subtle, restrained but deeply moving. Poems about coming home and being a writer blend in very naturally with this overriding theme. Diana Bridge's poems appear effortless but they show meticulous attention to detail and a fine sense of how a good poem works.
Download or read book The Red Bridge written by Garfield McAdam and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-05-16 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Red Bridge is real, the stories are not; they come from a confabulation of ideas and facts in my memory. All the stories have a mention of a Red Bridge in them. In some, the stories are connected to it, but in others, the bridge is but a cameo in the story. The bridge depicted on the cover is how I remember it from my childhood. It is a sister bridge which still stands while the actual Red Bridge has been replaced by concrete, and is not near as beautiful as the original one. I must say I am the only one with this memory and attachment to the Red Bridge. Along with memories of my Grandmother and Grandfather McAdam, it is a strong pull to my roots in my hometown of Perth, Ontario. While there may be a hint of the real, my characters are totally fictitious and are not meant to symbolize anyone real, living or dead. They are created for fun and enjoyment.
