Book Synopsis Snyder and Scurry County by : Scurry County Museum
Download or read book Snyder and Scurry County written by Scurry County Museum and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything is bigger in Texas. From ranches that cover more acres of land than Rhode Island to 10-gallon hats, monster belt buckles, and heart-attack barbecue, even the most remote corners of the state are bold, proud, and full of character. Scurry County is one such place. Following trails blazed by Comanche chief Quanah Parker and the US Army, settlers began moving to this part of West Texas in the 1870s. The town of Snyder was founded as a trading post on Deep Creek, which was made famous when buffalo hunter J. Wright Mooar shot a white buffalo there in 1876. Believed to be sacred by many Native American tribes, white buffalo are rare--only one out of every 10 million. Like the white buffalo, the town of Snyder is an anomaly, a strange combination of tradition and transition. Families who have farmed and ranched here for generations live in close proximity to an increasing transient population of oil field workers, college students, engineers, and electricians. Cattle still graze where buffalo once roamed, but today, many of their former pastures are filled with futuristic wind turbines.

Book excerpt: "A twenty-first century investigation of a twentieth century legacy, Our Peace tells a sweeping account of Scurry County’s African-American community from their journey across Texas during the Great Migration until the integration of the Snyder Independent School District. Pulled from the headlines of Snyder’s newspapers and set against a backdrop of the larger Black History of Texas, the story follows one resilient community’s struggle to create a home for themselves in the Jim Crow-era West. Beginning with an explosive act of domestic terrorism and the subsequent cover-up, Our Peace chronicles the birth, growth, maturity, and alleged death of segregation from a distinctly West Texas point of view. Centered around the lives of church deacon John Baker, school principal Daniel Johnson, and Texas Governor Price Daniel, the story exposes the rise and fall of the Scurry County Ku Klux Klan, the division of Snyder into parallel societies, the foundations of local Black education and religion, the harrowing experiences of the Great Depression and Dust Bowl, the chaos of Snyder’s oil boom, the anxieties of school integration, and the origins of Scurry County’s Confederate monument." -- Provided by publisher
