McAfee & Taft: The First 70 Years

As a part of its 70th anniversary, McAfee & Taft published a commemorative book about its rich history. Dozens of people shared their time and their stories. Hundreds of documents, artifacts and memorabilia were collected and archived. Contributors included current, retired, and former attorneys and staff, as well as family and friends of the firm’s founders and early partners.

Authored by award-winning reporter and writer M. Scott Carter, a sixth-generation Oklahoman, the book recounts fascinating anecdotes and illuminating backstories about the firm, its founders, its precedential cases won and landmark deals done, and the pivotal roles the firm has played in the history of Oklahoma City, the state of Oklahoma, and beyond.
