Description
"A revisionist portrait of Mexican American life in nineteenth-century Texas, The Tejano Community combines extensive research, penetrating insight, and critical analysis to support De Leon's contention that Tejanos were active agents in establishing communities and a bicultural heritage in Texas because of the resilience of their social intitutions and a commitment to hard work."--BOOK JACKET. "In this pioneering study, De Leon examines politics, urban and rural work patterns, religion, folklore, culture, and community. Overturning earlier views, he shows that the Tejanos were energetic, enterprising, and success-oriented, as well as interested in and active participants in politics. De Leon's work has initiated a reevaluation of the Tejano experience in Texas."--BOOK JACKET.
