overview : Oklahoma's Territorial period lasted from 1890 to 1907. During that short span of time Oklahoma was transformed from an unsettled home for 65 Indian Nations to an area of prosperous farms and growing cities.

collections : On the museum grounds stands the Carnegie Library where the first state governor was sworn in. Preserved by the Oklahoma Historical Society, this building, as well as the museum, serve as a visible link between Oklahoma's turbulent territorial period and the present.

topics : western American history, agriculture
