Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Thumb-Nail History of the City of Houston, Texas, From Its Founding in 1836 to the Year 1912 In presenting this little volume to the people of Houston for their consideration, I feel that a word of explanation is due. I wrote the book to supply a badly needed "need," of course, but I wrote it more for my own pleasure than for anything else. I have made no attempt at fine writing and have, given no thought to literary excellence. My sole object has been to attain accuracy, and every precaution has been taken to guard against error. Where-ever possible I have consulted original documents and newspapers. Yet, in spite of this, I fear that some errors have crept in and that the readers will find many statements which they may think erroneous. I say this because there are some stories and traditions that have been repeated so often that many suppose them to be true. If the readers derive as much pleasure from perusing these pages as I have from writing them, I shall feel content. I have enjoyed writing every line, and add "The End" with regret.
