The Missouri County History project, sponsored by the Missouri State Library and published by the Secretary of State for Missouri, has gathered county histories from all over the state. There are currently 116 volumes in this collection. Where counties are not covered specifically, there is usually some regional coverage. Some of the volumes cover several neighboring counties within one text. The counties Carter, Christian, Howell, Oregon, Ozark, Ripley, Shannon, and Stone in the Ozarks region are documented in the collection, but not in individual county histories.
