First published by John Jenkins in 1975 and out of print before two decades, the Texas State Historical Association brought this important work back to bookshelves. Women in Early Texas contains a new scholarly introduction by award-winning Texas historian Debbie Cottrell. The volume contains biographies of fifty notable women, representing a wide variety of races and backgrounds, whose lives deeply influenced the way Texas developed. Many of the biographies were written by descendants of the women and have been extensively researched and supplemented by heretofore unused family records and papers. The stories of these inspiring women are fine examples of local history and will be of interest to scholars doing research, teachers seeking classroom material, and general readers looking for stories of women out of Texas’ past. Debbie Cottrell’s introduction places this ground-breaking book and these diverse women in historical perspective, and provides an excellent bibliography of other sources for researchers and readers.
