Description

For eight centuries, the Texas frontier has seen conquest, exploration, immigration, revolution and innovation, leaving to history a cast of fascinating characters and captivating tales. Its historic period started in 1519 with Spanish exploration, but there was once a prehistory long before, nearly fifteen thousand years in advance, with the arrival of people to Texas. Every story pulls a new viewpoint from this long history by examining nearly all angles–from archaeology to ethnography, astronomy, agriculture and more. These true stories prove to be unexpected, occasionally contrarian and once in a while funny but at all times fascinating. Sign up for writer and historian C. Herndon Williams as he recounts his exploration of nearly a millennium of the Texas frontier.
