In this book, years of archival sleuthing by Donald E. Chipman and Harriett Denise Joseph now reveal the real human beings behind the legendary figures who discovered, explored, and settled Spanish Texas.By combining dramatic, real-life incidents, biographical sketches, and historical background, the authors bring to life these famous (and sometimes infamous) men of Spanish Texas:Alvar NÚÑez Cabeza de VacaAlonso de LeÓnFrancisco HidalgoLouis Juchereau de St. DenisAntonio MargilThe MarquÉs de AguayoPedro de RiveraFelipe de RÁbagoJosÉ de EscandÓnAthanase de MÉziÈresThe MarquÉs de RubÍAntonio Gil IbarvoDomingo CabelloJosÉ Bernardo GutiÉrrez de LaraJoaquÍn de ArredondoThe authors also devote a chapter to the women of Spanish Texas, drawing on scarce historical clues to tell the stories of both well-known and previously unknown Tejana, Indian, and African women.
