"Olmsted came to Texas in the 1850s. He had a trained eye for land and its use. He visited Houston, San Antonio, Austin, Eagle Pass, the German settlements (his favorite settlers) and the coastal towns and plantations. It is perceptive and intelligent reporting and reaming good reading." --A.C. Green THE 50 BEST BOOKS ABOUT TEXAS
