In 1902, Arthur H. Clark (1868-1951) founded a press in Cleveland, Ohio, that published books and journals examining the discovery and development of the American West. Clark’s company gained renown as the chief press for producing scholarship and publishing rare books on American Western historical and cultural subjects. In 1930, he moved his company west, as well, to Glendale, California. That same year, Clark decided to create the Southwest Historical Series, which would make available important historical journals relating to the southwestern frontier between 1821 and 1890, and consisted of unpublished manuscripts and documents from rare contemporary newspapers and periodicals, that would shed light on a number of important phases in southwestern history. Examples of subjects include the Santa Fe trail and trade; prairie life and travel; the military operations of Kearny and Doniphan during Mexican war; the gold rush to California in 1849; and Texas cattle trails and trade. Clark induced Ralph P. Bieber (1894-1981), an expert on overland travel to the Southwest and professor of history at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, to edit the Southwest Historical Series. From 1930 to 1943, the series produced 12 volumes with an analytical index to the last volume. In July 2006, the University of Oklahoma Press acquired the Arthur H. Clark Company as an imprint which continues to publish on the subject of the American West.
