THE WORLD OF BOOKS

The Oklahoma Petroleum Industry sold by The Chisholm Trail Bookstore in Oklahoma Instruments and Techniques for Thunderstorm Observation and Analysis sold by The Chisholm Trail Bookstore in Oklahoma Dictionary of Texas Artists sold by The Chisholm Trail Bookstore in Oklahoma

Greetings from the wonderful world of books. You have entered another world, mysterious and exciting -- from turbulent waters of adventure and intrigue to calm pools of serenity in poetry and prose; from literature to history; from engineering and mathematics to sociology and psychology. It's all here in the world of books, many smaller and larger worlds, many sparkling facets, many contrasting viewpoints.

I don't think there is anything more satisfying than curling up with a good book. Computers don't replace it; computers can't replace it. There is something about the stark black text on age-toned paper. There is something about the cloth-cover binding. There is something about ability to peruse at one's leisure or to quickly scan a page while seeking information.

I own a bookstore because I like books and I like reading. I haven't read all the books you see here, merely a fraction of them. Many I selected through the years because I thought others would enjoy them. Nonfiction, to me, is vastly more interesting than fiction, and so I stock mostly nonfiction, although you will see a smattering of literature and science fiction. I invite you to find what you enjoy reading.

Come and enjoy the world from the inside of a book. A book is a fine invitation -- the finest invitation you will ever receive.
