2020 Texas Old Missions and Forts Restoration Association Book
Award Alongside the various people moving into and through
the nineteenth-century Texas frontier was a group of European
intellectuals bent on establishing a socialist utopia near the
hamlet of Dallas. Their inspiration, French philosopher Charles
Fourier, envisioned a society in which basic human ambitions would
be expressed and cultivated, tied together by the bonds of emotion.
Fourier’s self-appointed disciple Victor Considerant led the
establishment of La RĂ©union in 1855, organized under a Paris stock
company. James Pratt weaves together the dramatic story of this
utopia: the complex tale of a diverse group of Europeans who sought
a new society but were forced to face the realities of life in
nineteenth-century Texas. Considerant’s followers endured a long
ocean voyage with Spanish gunboats following in their Caribbean
wake. They brushed blooming magnolias through Buffalo Bayou between
Galveston Bay and Houston—so narrow a channel that two ships
could not pass simultaneously. They walked for three weeks across
barren country, came into conflict with the Texas legislature over
land, and had to buy their stolen horses back from Chief Ned, a
famous Delaware Indian living in Texas. They were buffeted in the
rising political winds of abolition, and droughts ruined their
crops. In the end, however, it was their flamboyant leader Victor
Considerant who sabotaged their dream. Â
