The picture of native Life in the Indian Territory in the late 1800s and early 1900s of the inhabitants of the Creek Nation through pho-tographs and interviews that were conducted in the late 1930s under the supervision of the Work Projects Administration (WPA) is known as the Indian-Pioneer Papers.
The tales in this little book are drawn from and are concerning Muscogee (Creek) tribal people or their friends, garnered from inter-views in the Indian Pioneer History Collection in the University of Oklahoma Libraries Western History Collections, and photographs from the Oklahoma Historical Society, intended to celebrate these el-ders who once carried on traditions that they passed to us today..
When viewed with photographs from the Oklahoma Historical Society, it gives a taste of those days past when the Indian Territory was subsumed by the state of Oklahoma.
