Paperback. Zustand: Good. I was but a boy in my nineteenth year, and in for adventure when I started out from Hopkinsville, Kentucky, with all my worldly possessions, consisting of a few dollars in money, a change of clothes, and a gun, of course, to seek my fortune in this lazy man's paradise.Noah Smithwick was an old man, blind and near his ninetieth year, when his daughter recorded these words. He had stayed on in paradise--Texas--from 1827 to 1861, when his opposition to secession took him to California. The Evolution of a State is his story of these old Texas days.A blacksmith and a tobacco smuggler, Noah Smithwick made weapons for the Battle of Concepci n, and he fought in that battle. With Hensley's company, he chased the Mexican army south of the Rio Grande after the Battle of San Jacinto. Twice he served with the Texas Rangers. In quieter times, he was a postmaster and justice of the peace in little Webber's Prairie.Eyewitness to so much Texas history, Smithwick recounts his life and adventures in a simple, straightforward style, with a wry sense of humor. His keen memory for detail--what the people wore, what they ate, how they worked and played-- vividly evokes the sights, sounds, and smells of the frontier.First published in part by the Dallas Morning News, Smithwick's recollections gained such popularity that they were published in book form, as The Evolution of a State, in 1900. This new edition of a Texas classic makes widely available for the first time in many years this best of all books dealing with life in early Texas. Shawl, Charles (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. "Chief Victorio of the Warm Springs Apache has recounted the turbulent life of his people between 1876 and 1886. This eyewitness account . . . recalls not only the hunger, pursuit, and strife of those years, but also the thoughts, feelings, and culture of the hunted tribe. Recommended as general reading."--Library Journal "This volume contains a great deal of interesting information."--Journal of the West "The Apache point of view [is] presented with great clarity."--Books of the Southwest "A valuable addition to the southwestern frontier shelf and long will be drawn upon and used."--Journal of Arizona History "A genuine contribution to the story of the Apache wars, and a very readable book as well."--Westerners Brand Book "Shining through every page is the unquenchable spirit that was the Apache. Inured, indeed trained, to suffering, Apaches stood strong beside Victorio, Nana, and finally Geronimo in a vain attempt to maintain those things they held more dear than life itself--freedom, homeland, dignity as human beings. A warm and vital people, the Apaches had, and have, a great deal to offer."--Arizona and the West&nbsp. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Westford Recollections of Days Gone By offers its readers authentic tales about plain, everyday living at the turn of the 20th century in the villages of Westford, Massachusetts. This informal collection of interviews-tape-recorded in the mid-70s, though stretching to the millennium-echoes the voices of local folk, born in the late 1800s and early 1900s, who lived those times. It was horse-and-buggy days-the era of self-sustaining farms, one-room schoolhouses, country stores and doctors, Fourth of July pranksters, and a true sense of community. It was the era of the village blacksmith, the wainwright, the peddler, and the teamster hauling his produce to Faneuil Hall Marketplace. And it was a time when a wave of immigration added workers to the town's woolen mills, granite, and ice-harvesting industries-and when Westford boasted eight railroad stations. Indeed, it was a period when progress came to town with the arrival of new-fangled telephones, silent movies, autos, and electric trolleys So journey down Westford roads into those villages of yesteryear. Yes, do come meet the folk. Westford's way is friendly and down to earth. You will feel at home with the people who have lived its story. Westford Recollections of Days Gone By features 49 folksy interviews prefaced by short biographies, 188 vintage photos, a selected bibliography, geographical data, and a millennium update of new occupants and the many changes that time has wrought within the Westford community.…
