Riassunto

The first biography of a pioneer of Mexican descent in the literature of the Big Bend of Texas. An anecdotal family history of Federico Villalba written by his great-grandson. A captivating account of life in the early 1900s in the Bid Bend, at a time when racial tensions were high, when the Mexican Revolution was raging across the border, and when commonly men wore guns and were not reluctant to use them.

Recensione:

“If ever there has been family history recounted through a tale of genuine adventure, this is it. While sometimes heart-rendering, often romantic, and ever ringing of truth, ­Federico ­Villalba’s Texas is a major contribution to the history of the Big Bend of Texas as well as that of La Frontera de ­Chihuahua.” —Glenn Willeford, Author and Historian
