I Could See Nothing: Settling West Texas

Howdy folks. This story starts back in 1886 in Henrietta Texas. My name is Bob and I was six years old back then... Thus speaks Bob Crump the authors father as he begins to describe the familys move to settle Lubbock County on the High Plains of Texas in 1890. His family was one of the first to homestead that area and his description of that empty desolate grassland and everyday life on the scattered ranches opens a window into a vivid American West of yesterday one that is rapidly fading away. Illustrated by old family photos Bobs narrative will transport todays readers into the Texas of his childhood.
