Winner, 2017 Oklahoma Book Award, sponsored by the Oklahoma Center for the Book Winner, 2016 Outstanding Book on Oklahoma History, sponsored by the Oklahoma Historical Society At the beginning of America’s Great Depression, Texas and Oklahoma armed up and went to war over a 75-cent toll bridge that connected their states across the Red River. It was a two-week affair marked by the presence of National Guardsmen with field artillery, Texas Rangers with itchy trigger fingers, angry mobs, Model T blockade runners, and even a costumed Native American peace delegation. Traffic backed up for miles, cutting off travel between the states. This conflict entertained newspaper readers nationwide during the summer of 1931, but the Red River Bridge War was a deadly serious affair for many rural Americans at a time when free bridges and passable roads could mean the difference between survival and starvation. The confrontation had national consequences, too: it marked an end to public acceptance of the privately owned ferries, toll bridges, and turnpikes that threatened to strangle American transportation in the automobile age. The Red River Bridge War: A Texas-Oklahoma Border Battle documents the day-to-day skirmishes of this unlikely conflict between two sovereign states, each struggling to help citizens get goods to market at a time of reduced tax revenue and little federal assistance. It also serves as a cautionary tale, providing historical context to the current trend of re-privatizing our nation’s highway infrastructure.

"In September, 1899, began the work on the construction of the substructure for the Red River Bridge for the Kansas City Southern Railway at Index, Texas, ten miles north of Texarkana, Texas. The new substructure was located about one hundred feet up stream from the old one, consequently it was not necessary to maintain traffic during construction. The object of the new bridge was to replace a much lighter one, which was too light for the increased weight of rolling stock of the railroad company. The substructure consists of seven piers, including a pivot pier, and two abutments. The seven piers are concrete piers, which are supported by cribs and caissons of timber and portland cement concrete, sunk by the pneumatic process to and into the soft bed-rock, namely blue shale of impenetrable thickness"--Leaf 1.
