Cattle drovers soon arrived with their herds, and settlers crowded onto trains bound for Texas. This book brings to life the vibrant energy of those early years-the rowdy nightlife, memorable characters, nascent cultural institutions, investment opportunities, schools, churches, and a rapidly filling cemetery. Illustrated with a wealth of pictorial material, these pages document technological innovation, women's roles, and a rich mixture of nationalities, cultures, and races. Denison was a microcosm of post-Civil War life on the Texas frontier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 174\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 20, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42716546236479,"sku":"9781508489597","price":32.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/520a80ebd107dbcb39d52ad0ad5dfa74.webp?v=1765075310","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/frontier-denison-texas-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
