Banking in Oklahoma, 1907–2000

Banking in Oklahoma, 1907–2000

by Michael J. Hightower

Foreword by Frank Keating

The story of banking in twentieth-century Oklahoma is also the story of the Sooner State’s first hundred years, as Michael J. Hightower’s new book demonstrates. Oklahoma statehood coincided with the Panic of 1907, and both events signaled seismic shifts in state banking practices. Much as Oklahoma banks shed their frontier persona to become more tightly integrated in the national economy, so, too, was decentralized banking revealed as an anachronism, utterly unsuited to an increasingly global economy.

Banking in Oklahoma Before Statehood

Banking in Oklahoma Before Statehood

by Michael J. Hightower

This lively book takes Oklahoma history into the world of Wild West capitalism. It begins with a useful survey of banking from the early days of the American republic until commercial patterns coalesced in the East. It then follows the course of American expansion westward, tracing the evolution of commerce and banking in Oklahoma from their genesis to the eve of statehood in 1907.
