Trammel's Trace: The First Road to Texas from the North, Paperback/Gary L. Pinkerton

Descriere

Description"A self-proclaimed 'rut nut' prone to ground-truth his research, Gary L. Pinkerton brings considerable historical and geoarchaeological skills to bear in his in-depth analysis of an often-overlooked early route to Texas. This is, at one level, a detailed biography of a road, but in focusing on a line through the Texas prairies and woodlands that predated formal Anglo-American colonization of the area, the author also makes significant, defining connections that give the reader much more to consider."--Southwestern Historical Quarterly "Pinkerton's passion is contagious, and his enthusiasm will strike a chord with lay readers as well as scholars of early Texas history."--Central Texas Studies About the Author GARY L. PINKERTON, the author of numerous articles on Trammel's Trace, resides in Houston.
