This book was released on 2013 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 12 millennia, natural resources attracted humans to the region that Spanish conquistadors named the Llano Estacado (the Staked Plains). Nineteenth-century westward expansion brought many Americans to the plains, and small towns began to develop. On December 19, 1890, two communities on the Llano Estacado joined forces to create Lubbock. The sights and sounds of families moving their homes, farms, and businesses to the fledgling community exemplified the spirit of commitment, sacrifice, and cooperation that citizens of Lubbock continue to display. Today, 250,000 people call Lubbock home, and it remains the socioeconomic center of the Llano Estacado.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Out on the Texas Plains, wrangling with history resembles taking in the sunset--a stampede of splendor and shadow all at once. Roam an Ohio-sized patch of prairie and take stock of the heroic tasks and moral dilemmas facing the unforgettable characters who called West Texas home. Ben Hogan sinks a putt with the focus of the Clovis man who hunted mammoth in the same spot thousands of years before. Lubbock's largest lawsuit runs its interminable course. And a starving Roy Rogers makes a quick meal of jackrabbit on the Llano Estacado. Chuck Lanehart gathers statesmen and journalists, outlaws and entertainers, in these profiles of the Texas Plains.

Book excerpt: The city of Lubbock began as a compromise between two smaller settlements known as Lubbock and Monterey. These settlements agreed to combine on December 19, 1890, and by 1891, the combined settlement was elected the new county seat as farmers, ranchers, and settlers began to arrive. In 1909, Lubbock incorporated as a city, and the Santa Fe Railroad sent its first train south from Plainview. The Texas legislature authorized the establishment of Texas Technological College in 1923, and Lubbock won the regional contest for the new university's location. Today Lubbock is the 10th largest city in Texas with an estimated population of 230,000. The Lubbock economy thrives on agriculture, education, manufacturing, and health industries.
