Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Description of Texas, Its Advantages and Resources: With Some Account of Their Development, Past, Present and Future At that early day there was much - much in the character and habits of the people of all classes and occupations; much in the varied characteristics of the country, then seen al most in a state of Nature, being occupied only by villages and farms, small and far between each other, - much in the varied productions to the extent then exhibited, - much in the history and institutions of the country to arrest the attention and excite the investigations of an inquiring mind. The lawyers with whom I associated were, for the most part, men of great intellectual vigor, and Of distinctive characters, no two Of them being alike in their leading attributes. SO with other citizens, a strong individuality and a general intelligence in common sense matters characterized them. Men of no class seemed to be built on any common pattern in anything, but each stood out for himself, a unit in the association of people here thrown together from different localities. There were men who had settled in the country as far back as 1822, and had passed through and participated in all Of the revolutions that had transpired, some Of them as Officers in the army, and others as officers In civil life. Most Of them were familiar with the stirring events of the past, and had leisure and will ingness to freely communicate them. The old settlers knew each other Often for hundreds of miles distant. Thus the Op portunity was furnished to learn much Of the past history, the institutions and the men of Texas.

Download or read book Beyond Redemption written by Patrick G. Williams and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2007-02-06 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of Reconstruction, the old order reasserted itself, to varying degrees, throughout the former Confederate states. This period—Redemption, as it was called—was crucial in establishing the structures and alliances that dominated the Solid South until at least the mid-twentieth century. Texas shared in this, but because of its distinctive antebellum history, its western position within the region, and the large influx of new residents that poured across its borders, it followed its own path toward Redemption. Now, historian Patrick G. Williams provides a dual study of the issues facing Texas Democrats as they rebuilt their party and of the policies they pursued once they were back in power. Treating Texas as a southern but also a western and a borderlands state, Williams has crafted a work with a richly textured awareness unlike any previous single study. Students of regional and political history will benefit from Williams’ comprehensive view of this often overlooked, yet definitive era in Texas history.
