This perhaps the first accurate account of the early settlers of West Galveston Island. According to the author 90 % of the story has never been written before. It took five years, hundreds of interviews, and sometime treacherous legwork to get it finalized. Contains general history, histories of families, charts, photographs and much detail including her research in countless old copies of The Galveston Daily News. A rare gem and hard to find.
