"Fort Gibson: A Brief History" by Grant Foreman and Carolyn Thomas Foreman is a historical account written in the early to mid-20th century. This book provides an in-depth exploration of Fort Gibson, the oldest military establishment in Oklahoma, which served as a significant outpost on the western frontier of the United States. The narrative examines the fort's role in military activities, interactions with Native American tribes, and the broader historical context of American expansion during the 19th century. The book details the establishment and development of Fort Gibson from its founding in 1824 through its eventual abandonment in 1890. It covers influential figures associated with the fort, including Colonel Matthew Arbuckle and Colonel A. P. Chouteau, and discusses significant events such as treaty negotiations with various Native American tribes and military expeditions. Through vivid descriptions of daily life, military routines, and social interactions at the fort, the authors paint a comprehensive picture of its importance as a military and cultural hub during a transformative period in American history.
