Frontier Texas, History of a Borderland to 1880
Abilene: State House Press, 2004. 1st edition. 272 pages. Hardcover book with dustjacket; both in FINE condition.
The epic story of Western Texas told in a flowing style that brings together the many complex forces that have contributed through the years to the history of West Texas. The area from Fort Worth to the Caprock and from Palo Duro Canyon to the San Saba River is wind-swept and sun-drenched. For millennia it has been an area of conflict and survival, climatic borderland, a geographical borderland, a political borderland, a cultural borderland requiring perseverance, toughness and determination.
