[true crime] Ghosts of Crook County An Oil Fortune, a Phantom Child, and the Fight for Indigenous Land by Russell Cobb | 10.55 MB
Title: Ghosts of Crook County
Author: Russell Cobb
Description:

For readers of David Grann's award-winning Killers of the Flower Moon

When oil was discovered in Oklahoma, these counterfeit tycoons impersonated, defrauded, and murdered Native property owners to snatch up hundreds of acres of oil-rich land.
Writer and fourth-generation Oklahoman Russell Cobb sets the stage for one such oilman's chicanery: Tulsa entrepreneur Charles Page's campaign for a young Muscogee boy's land in Creek County. Problem was, "Tommy Atkins," the boy in question, had died years prior—if he ever lived at all.
