Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Texas Governors' Wives This is truly the Woman's age, and it is right and just that future students have these brief sketches of Our Governors' Wives to glance over when they are digging in the whys and wherefores of Texas history. Emerson says there is no history, only biography. This is exemplified in French literature. The French are poor historians, yet their memoirs are the most interesting reading in the world, and the intimacy of the memoir gives an insight into the real life of that nation as no clear cold historical fact ever could.

Book Impeached

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jessica Brannon-Wranosky
  • Publisher : Texas A&M University Press
  • Release : 2017-03-17
  • ISBN : 1623495288
  • Pages : 214 pages

Download or read book Impeached written by Jessica Brannon-Wranosky and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-17 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1917, barely into his second term as governor of Texas, James E. Ferguson was impeached, convicted, and removed from office. Impeached provides a new examination of the rise and fall of Ferguson’s political fortunes, offering a focused look at how battles over economic class, academic freedom, women’s enfranchisement, and concentrated political power came to be directed toward one politician. Jessica Brannon-Wranosky and Bruce A. Glasrud have brought together top scholars to shine a light on this unique chapter in Texas history. An overview by John R. Lundberg offers a comprehensive survey of the impeachment process. Kay Reed Arnold then follows the Ferguson story into the halls of academia at the University of Texas—which Ferguson threatened to close—sparking a fierce response by faculty, alumni, students, and, especially, the Women’s Committee for Good Government. Rachel M. Gunter further places the Ferguson impeachment in the context of the suffrage movement. Leah LaGrone Ochoa then explores Ferguson’s hot-and-cold relationship with the Texas press, and Mark Stanley examines the impact of the impeachment on Texas politics in the decades that followed. Jessica Brannon-Wranosky concludes with an assessment of the historical memory of Ferguson's impeachment throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Impeached: The Removal of Texas Governor James E. Ferguson reveals how power ebbed and flowed in twentieth-century Texas and includes several annotated primary documents critical to understanding the Ferguson impeachment.
