Description

"For twenty years, grassroots historian C. L. Sonnichsen went door to door through the backcountry of east and south-central Texas to coax tales from reluctant informants and peruse county documents on the colorful feuds that bloodied the state's early history. Dale L. Walker, Sonnichsen's biographer, sketches the author's life, historical craft, and publishing and teaching career."--BOOK JACKET.
