A Guide To Life And Literature Of The Southwest by J. Frank Dobie is a comprehensive guide to the history, culture, and literature of the American Southwest. The book covers a wide range of topics, including Native American tribes, Spanish colonization, cowboy culture, and the impact of the Civil War on the region. Dobie also provides detailed profiles of prominent writers and poets who have been inspired by the Southwest, such as Willa Cather, John Steinbeck, and Cormac McCarthy. The book is written in an engaging and accessible style, making it an ideal resource for anyone interested in learning more about this fascinating and unique part of the United States.STEPHEN F. AUSTIN wanted to exclude lawyers, along with roving frontiersmen, from his colonies in Texas, and hoped thus to promote a utopian society. The lawyers got in, however. Their wit, the anecdotes of which they were both subject and author, and the political stories they made traditional from the stump, have not been adequately set down.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
