SOMERVELLW.C. NunnA Story Of A Texas County
There is beauty in Somervell, a rugged, hilly area greened by oaks and cedars and adorned by crystaline streams. It is not a new land, and the ancient dinosaur and brontosaurus both left their tracks upon its surface long before present day man appeared.
Finally Indians arrived to build their campfires along the streams, and later Spanish explorers touched the area.
Still it was the Anglo-Americans who came to stay. George and Charles Barnard were among the first settlers, and they built a trading post near Comanche Peak.
This book is full of history on the settlement and establishment of Somervell County.
A good book to learn about this county from its beginning to the present!
257 pages of great reading with some nice photos and maps!
My late father had collected many fine books - this is one from his estate. He often clipped newspaper articles about books in his collection or their authors, and kept them in the book. Some are included in this book.
