Book Synopsis Archie P. McDonald by : Archie P. McDonald
Download or read book Archie P. McDonald written by Archie P. McDonald and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-19 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historian Archie P. McDonald (1935–2012) retired in 2008 as director of the East Texas Historical Association and editor of the East Texas Historical Journal after thirty-seven years of service. A beloved professor and author of numerous books, he charted the course of the ETHA and served as leader of several organizations. He was an inspiration to countless students, colleagues, and others who share a common appreciation for Lone Star history. Dan K. Utley sat down with McDonald on several occasions to capture and preserve his experiences for posterity. The resulting memoir not only serves to trace McDonald’s life and career but also reveals much about the maturation of a scholarly organization and its journal. McDonald was an evangelist for the study of history who believed in an open tent. This book is an important contribution to the historiography of Texas.
Book Synopsis Back Then Again by : Archie P. McDonald
Download or read book Back Then Again written by Archie P. McDonald and published by Stephen F. Austin University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red River Radio, an affiliate of National Public Radio, headquartered in Shreveport, Louisiana, supplements their broadcast of the Morning Edition for five minutes each Friday at 7:35 a.m. for "The comments of our own Dr. Archie McDonald." Broadcast to large portions of Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and East Texas, McDonald's comments are memories of growing up in the South of the 1940s and 1950s, his collegiate and grad school activities during the 1960s, and other miscellaneous adventures that have ushered him into the 21st Century. But, a broadcast takes a few minutes and then disappears. The printed page--McDonald's natural habitat--lasts longer. So here we are with a bit of permanence, Back Then Again: More Simple Pleasures and Everyday Heroes.

Download or read book Texas written by Archie P. McDonald and published by TX A&m-McWhiney Foundation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Texas "a whole other country"-a slogan that promotes tourism as much within the Lone Star State as elsewhere-is familiar to native Texans and those adopted sons and daughters who "got here just as quickly as they could." Texas is as varied as East Texas timberland, hundreds of miles of seashore, prairies of the Central and High Plains, and the dry desert of far West Texas. When traveling abroad and asked, "Where are you from?" residents of forty-nine of the United States usually respond, "the USA." Nearly every citizen of the Lone Star State will answer "Texas!" The world encourages such chauvinism. Mass media celebrates and exploits Texas and Texans in television and motion pictures about the Alamo, Texas Rangers, the oil industry, and athletics, to name only a few genre. Texans' pride in their distinctiveness increases when their state is paraded-or satired-and they consciously "pass it on" to succeeding generations. But what does it mean to be a Texan? How did Texas come to be as it is? Texas: A Compact History provides answers to such questions about Texans and Texas. It tells the story of Texas history and provides thoughtful interpretations about the state's development, all with the general reader in mind-in a brief, easily read narrative. ARCHIE P. McDONALD is the author of numerous books dealing with various aspects of Texas history, including Back Then: Simple Pleasures and Everyday Heroes (State House Press, 2005)

Book excerpt: Meet the twenty-six-year-old lawyer who commanded Texas' most famous garrison for thirteen incredible days and penned the words, "I shall never retreat or surrender-victory or death."William Barrett Travis is the first scholarly biography of the legendary Alamo commander. Historian Archie P. McDonald treats his subject not merely as a god-like hero, but as the complete human being that he was.

The result is an exciting and entertaining, but above all contemplative analysis of Travis and the Texas War for Independence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Since that beginning, the journal has published some forty articles in the field. Now, Bruce A. Glasrud and Archie P. McDonald have gathered a collection of some of the best articles on black history from the East Texas Historical Journal; their samplings span the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and cover the principal themes and topics of African American history in the eastern portion of the Lone Star State. The book concludes with a listing of all articles on African American history from the East Texas Historical Journal. Blacks in East Texas History will enlighten and inform students and scholars of regional and African American history, as well as those interested in the trials and progress of African Americans in the American South and Southwest.
Book Synopsis Helpful Cooking Hints for House Husbands of Uppity Women by : Archie P. McDonald
Download or read book Helpful Cooking Hints for House Husbands of Uppity Women written by Archie P. McDonald and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2001-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cause of this book is Judy McDonald, former Mayor of Nacogdoches, Texas. When she won the seat someone else had to do the cooking at home, and who better to turn to than the HouseHusband? This is a cookbook for all husbands enlisted to cooking duty, and it assumes no prior cooking knowledge beyond knowing how to measure and how to turn on the stove. As Archie McDonald irreverently observes, “Uppity Women” are entering the workforce and not necessarily cooking all the meals anymore, so his aim is to “help you learn to feed your kids, yourself, and even your Uppity Woman if you feel charitable.” McDonald first provides a glossary of cooking terms for the neophyte kitchen inductee (chopping, for example, is “rendering a defenseless pepper or not-so-defenseless onion into a lot of little slivers or chunks”). He then discusses how to equip the kitchen with proper cooking implements and ingredients (a meat mallet is used to “beat the tar out of round steak”). This is followed by more than one hundred easy-to-follow recipes for beef, chicken, pork, and seafood main courses; vegetables; salads; breads; and desserts. No one new to the kitchen should be without this primer, whether a HouseHusband or an Uppity Woman, or something in between. It makes the perfect gift for newlyweds!

Miller has delved into previously unused or overlooked papers housed in New Orleans to reconstruct a chain of events that set the Crescent City, in many ways, at the center of the Texian fight for independence.
