| **** Welcome to the Red River Historian! **** |
about the past - specifically, the history of where the South meets the West: Texas, Oklahoma. Arkansas and Louisiana. My name is Robin Cole Jett, and I am a firm believer in active history. Active history brings the stories of the past to life by understanding the cultural geography of space through photography. Please enjoy the photos, histories, primary sources, and essays on this site, and e-mail me if you have any questions, comments, or items to share! |
