Victorian Texas Courthouses have been called the "architectural
treasures of the state". Although they have a number of
characteristics in common, such as the use of wrought iron,
stained-glass, towers, turrets, and gingerbread, the architecture
of the Victorian Era was not just one style but a collection of
many styles. Coinciding with these architectural styles in Texas
was the "golden age" of courthouse design and construction. The
Victorian styles fit perfectly with the public's idea of what a
grand "temple of justice" should say about the county's people and
their values. These styles were ideal in that they could illustrate
in stone and glass the power of government and law in society.
Unfortunately, most of these great Victorian buildings are gone,
but thankfully through vintage picture post cards we can still
enjoy their architecture. This book is an attempt at the
architectural preservation of Victorian Texas courthouses through
the use of over one hundred vintage picture post cards.
My Henry is a coming of age story told by the main character Gracie
Lemaras. It begins in the summer before Gracie will be starting
high school and she is very nervous about it. To make matters worse
her best friend Michie is off spending the summer with her father
and Gracie is left all alone. However her loneliness is to be short
lived when she meets Henry and they set out on an adventure that
Gracie will certainly never forget.
The history of Galveston is the history of Texas. Beyond that, it
is the history of the European colonization of the New World.
Galveston has seen cannibalistic Indians, Spanish conquistadors,
explorers, filibusters, pirates and their treasure, ship wrecks,
Civil War battles, yellow fever epidemics and survived all these to
become the leading city in Texas in both population and commerce
during the mid and late 19th Century. The heroes of the Alamo and
San Jacinto have walked her streets. Jim Bowie, Sam Houston,
General Santa Anna and President David G. Burnett are but a few of
the men whose names fill our history books. She has seen a fleet of
pirate ships anchored in her harbor as well as the Union Navy.
Galveston had the first telegraph, first telephone, first electric
lights, first medical and nursing schools in the state and the list
goes on and on. At one time she had over forty millionaires living
in kingly mansions of almost every style of architecture along
Broadway and other avenues.
Images in the Pines is more than a book of photographs and poems.
It is a book of memories of life in East Texas in the late 1800s
and early 20th Century. Newton County, as this book illustrates, is
unique within itself, yet so similar to all of East Texas in its
history, its culture and its people. Even if you didn't grow up
here, you'll find that these photographs and poems will rekindle
memories and images of a simpler time, a time where the pace of
life was slower and the world didn't seem so rushed or complicated.
It is the hope of the authors that you will read and re-read these
poems and look at the photographs, and each time you do, you will
find a new meaning, new insight and inspiration in them. The ideas
in this book should be a constant reminder of a part of Texas where
the values of home, family, friends, hard work and community are as
important today as they were yesterday.
