Book Synopsis Inventing the Fiesta City by : Laura Hernández-Ehrisman
Download or read book Inventing the Fiesta City written by Laura Hernández-Ehrisman and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2010-10-22 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiesta San Antonio began in 1891 and through the twentieth century expanded from a single parade to over two hundred events spanning a ten-day period. Laura Hernández-Ehrisman examines Fiesta's development as part of San Antonio's culture of power relations between men and women, Anglos and Mexicanos. In some ways Fiesta resembles hundreds of urban celebrations across the country, but San Antonio offers a unique fusion of Southern, Western, and Mexican cultures that articulates a distinct community identity. From its beginning as a celebration of a new social order in San Antonio controlled by a German and Anglo elite to the citywide spectacle of today, Hernández-Ehrisman traces the connections between Fiesta and the construction of the city's tourist industry and social change in San Antonio.

Book Synopsis Boggy Slough by : Jonathan K. Gerland
Download or read book Boggy Slough written by Jonathan K. Gerland and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-24 with total page 931 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boggy Slough Conservation Area is a 19,000-acre unbroken tract of pine and bottomland hardwood forest situated in East Texas’ Trinity and Houston counties. More than twenty miles of the Neches River, one of the last free-flowing rivers in the state, serves as the eastern boundary, and for more than a century the land has been one of the state’s leading game and industrial forest management areas. A unique blend of natural, cultural, and business history, Boggy Slough presents a highly illustrated narrative of the land, people, and evolving purpose, from time of European contact to the present. Gerland traces the many phases of land use in this forest as it transitioned from hunting, gathering, fishing, and subsistence farming to an experimental mix of stock raising and large-scale commercial forestry, eventually becoming important conservation land along the Neches River Corridor. Gerland explores the natural features and adaptive land use practices of the region as well as the environmental history of railroads and logging camps, barbed wire fences and company cattle ranches, and exclusive hunting clubs. The underlying story is the evolution and environmental impact of Southern Pine Lumber Company, founded in 1893 by T. L. L. Temple. Now owned and maintained by the fifth generation of the Temple family, the Boggy Slough lands are the last remnants of what was once a 1.2 million–acre forest empire. Gerland examines the family’s and the lumber company’s struggles to grow and manage a second-, third-, and fourth-generation forest, ultimately achieving sustainability while managing changing environmental concerns and attitudes.
Book Synopsis A Single Star and Bloody Knuckles by : Bill Minutaglio
Download or read book A Single Star and Bloody Knuckles written by Bill Minutaglio and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist, 2021 Writers’ League of Texas Book Award For John Nance “Cactus Jack” Garner, there was one simple rule in politics: “You’ve got to bloody your knuckles.” It’s a maxim that applies in so many ways to the state of Texas, where the struggle for power has often unfolded through underhanded politicking, backroom dealings, and, quite literally, bloodshed. The contentious history of Texas politics has been shaped by dangerous and often violent events, and been formed not just in the halls of power but by marginalized voices omitted from the official narratives. A Single Star and Bloody Knuckles traces the state’s conflicted and dramatic evolution over the past 150 years through its pivotal political players, including oft-neglected women and people of color. Beginning in 1870 with the birth of Texas’s modern political framework, Bill Minutaglio chronicles Texas political life against the backdrop of industry, the economy, and race relations, recasting the narrative of influential Texans. With journalistic verve and candor, Minutaglio delivers a contemporary history of the determined men and women who fought for their particular visions of Texas and helped define the state as a potent force in national affairs.

It is a city known for its festivals, celebrations, and rich mix of civil and cultural events. Once the largest city in Texas, from the 1888 San Antonio Fair and International Exposition to Hemisfair in the 1960s, the city has always sought to put itself in the international spotlight. But, day to day, the locals have enjoyed wonderful, if not sometimes quirky, parks such as the San Perdo Electric Park. Featured is the legendary Brackenridge Park, the tenth oldest park in the U.S., complete with the zoo, sky buckets, the Japanese Gardens, and Sunken Garden Theater. Today, Fiesta is still held every spring and has grown into one of the largest civic events in the nation. The centerpiece of hundreds of events is the Battle of the Flowers parade, the second oldest continuously operating parade in the U.S. (after the Rose Parade), complete with Fiesta queens and entries that reflect the colorful, and sometimes surprising, cultures of San Antonio including Mexican and German heritage. Historic landmarks of present and yesteryear abound, including: theaters such as the Majestic, Aztec, and Empire; Hot Spring Hotel spas which attracted luminaries such as Teddy Roosevelt and Cecil B. DeMille; the Spanish Missions including The Alamo; and the San Antonio river, later known around the world as Riverwalk. Dining establishments has long reflected the local character of the city, as shown through a burgeoning Mexican food scene as well as favorites like the Buckhorn Saloon, the Menger Hotel, Earl Abel's, and many others. From inner city car races and Ostrich races to music by accordion and maracas, San Antonio at rest and at play has a storied and colorful history that is reflected through the postcards over the decades.
