Book Overview

The story of Arkansas, as told here, is a story of the dramatic impact of a migrating southern and eastern culture upon a roaring western frontier. Fletcher recognizes the fun and humor long associated with Arkansas--comic anecdote, boisterous wit, tall tale, heavy satire--but he also tells the hard historic facts, and the result is something new in frontier epic.

Originally published in 1947.

Fletcher on Arkansas

Magnificent historical detail including geologicaland cultural interests. Anyone with the smallest interest in Arkansas should read this book. Not that much has changed there since 1945 when the book was finished. Unusual insight into that (and this) place and time by an erudite artist.
