Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a catalog of a traveling museum exhibit titled "War and Peace on the Rio Grande 1861-1867" which first debuted in February of 2019 at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. In an effort to foster ongoing history education and public awareness of the Rio Grande Valley region of Texas's history, this exhibit and catalog guide are designed to highlight several aspects of US Civil War events, people, places and battles that occurred in deep, south Texas along the newly established international border with Mexico during the war and with Reconstruction activity immediately afterward. In a region that is largely ignored with regard to the US Civil War activity, this book and its corresponding exhibit will show just how important the region was in maintaining war efforts which continued even after the surrender of Robert E. Lee to Ulysses S. Grant in April of 1865.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laredo is a city at the crossroads of North American history. Founded by the Spanish in 1755, it has stood at the intersection of regional commerce since its earliest days. Now, John A. Adams, Jr. provides the first-ever panoramic business and economic history of Laredo. He traces the evolution of the region from its early days as a ranching center into the mid-twentieth century, when Laredo had become what it remains today: a booming port of trade and a principal center of commerce and financial services on the southern border of the United States. In Commerce and Conflict on the Rio Grande Adams demonstrates how the increasingly diversified economy of the region fed the fortunes of the city. His narrative, buttressed throughout by tables and statistics, paints a vivid mural of both the economic forces and the farsighted and ambitious individuals that combined to bring prosperity to this unique American city. Readers will find a wealth of insights into regional economics, history, and borderlands themes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Campaigns of the Rio Grande and of Mexico: With Notices of the Recent Work of Major Ripley In presenting these pages to the public, the writer relied much on manuscript notes, taken in the field and while the events were occurring. His object in appearing before the public was to testify to the services of those heroic officers and soldiers, who were in his judgment depreciated in the work of Major Ripley. He felt impelled to this course by a sense of duty; and he appeals to all the actors in those scenes to bear testimony in vindication of the truth. Otherwise the work of Major Ripley will be considered authentic in all respects, and its authority will perpetuate many wrong views of these transactions. At the same time he thinks the work has much positive merit. It shows decided ability and promises well for the future. Should Major Ripley come to this task again, with powers matured by a few years more study and reflection, and with entire freedom from partisan feelings, there is no doubt his reputation as a military writer would be established, and his work appealed to as authority.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Runner-up, 2019 Texas Old Missions and Forts Restoration Book Award, sponsored by the Texas Old Missions and Forts Restoration Association (TOMFRA) "A valuable read for anyone interested in Texas or Mexican history, as well as the Civil War, life on the frontier, and race relations." --The NYMAS Review "The Civil War on the Rio Grande is an unconventional history, but an informative one. Some of the chapters are written in academic style. These often make slow reading. Yet the result is rewarding. The book reveals the complexities of the war fought along the nation's southern boundary."--Galveston County Daily News "The entire effort clearly demonstrates that Civil War South Texas offers opportunities for study far beyond the Battle of Palmito Ranch."--Southwestern Historical Quarterly Long known as a place of cross-border intrigue, the Rio Grande's unique role in the history of the American Civil War has been largely forgotten or overlooked. Few know of the dramatic events that took place here or the complex history of ethnic tensions and international intrigue and the clash of colorful characters that marked the unfolding and aftermath of the Civil War in the Lone Star State. To understand the American Civil War in Texas also requires an understanding of the history of Mexico. The Civil War on the Rio Grande focuses on the region's forced annexation from Mexico in 1848 through the Civil War and Reconstruction. In a very real sense, the Lower Rio Grande Valley was a microcosm not only of the United States but also of increasing globalization as revealed by the intersections of races, cultures, economic forces, historical dynamics, and individual destinies. As a companion to Blue and Gray on the Border: The Rio Grande Valley Civil War Trail, this volume provides the scholarly backbone to a larger public history project exploring three decades of ethnic conflict, shifting international alliances, and competing economic proxies at the border. The Civil War on the Rio Grande, 1846-1876 makes a groundbreaking contribution not only to the history of a Texas region in transition but also to the larger history of a nation at war with itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic of the Rio Grande had a brief and tenuous existence (1838–1840) before most of it was reabsorbed by Mexico and the remainder annexed by the United States, yet this region that straddles the Rio Grande has retained its distinctive cultural identity to the present day. Born on one side of the Rio Grande and raised on the other, Beatriz de la Garza is a product of this region. Her birthplace and its people are the subjects of this work, which fuses family memoir and borderlands history. From the Republic of the Rio Grande brings new insights and information to the study of transnational cultures by drawing from family papers supplemented by other original sources, local chronicles, and scholarly works. De la Garza has fashioned a history of this area from the perspective of individuals involved in the events recounted. The book is composed of nine sections spanning some two hundred years, beginning in the mid-1700s. Each section covers not only a chronological period but also a particular theme relating to the history of the region. De la Garza takes a personal approach, opening most sections with an individual observation or experience that leads to the central motif, whether this is the shared identity of the inhabitants, their pride in their biculturalism and bilingualism, or their deep attachment to the land of their ancestors.
