A propos de cet article

First edition. 17 1/2" x 11 1/2" two-tone cloth, titles stamped in gilt on the front cover and spine, xiii [blank], 228 [1] pp., acknowledgments, foreword, illustrated, maps, bibliography and suggestions for further reading, index. Contains 81 full-page county maps from the 1800's. Foreword by Garry Mauro. Inked gift inscription on the front free fly leaf : "To Carlos and Elvira Toman from Alan Sugg, whom I join in thanking for all they have accomplished for CCSU this past year and the years before -- we know -- we've watched him labor -- and succeed. Joe B. Frantz, Merry Christmas 1988. That's Carlos we're talking about -- no one but El Senador!" Printed on enamel coated stock designed to last 300 years. Many of the original county maps are rare and seldom, if ever, seen. A good look into the early Texas land records of 81 counties. Some light spotting to the top edge of the front cover and top edges of the cloth, else a very good internally clean copy in dust jacket.
