Texas has a long and colorful history, and the highlights are presented in this well researched work from Gary Vliet. From Cabeza de Vaca’s shipwreck in 1528 through the Texas Revolution to the present day—almost 500 years of recorded history—a myriad of significant events in Texas history are recounted in an easily accessed style. These events are arranged by day of the year to allow readers to see into the past on any specific day. Expanding upon the author’s first day-by-day look at Texas history, this new and enhanced version offers many more vignettes on the story of the Lone Star State.
Gary Vliet, Ph.D., is a Professor Emeritus at the University of Texas at Austin. He grew up in Alberta, Canada, and then studied and worked in California before joining the Mechanical Engineering faculty at the University of Texas at Austin (UT), where he taught for 35 years. His other publications, besides a number of technical papers, are a book on solar energy, a biography of a family member, and a forthcoming centennial history of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UT. He resides in Austin.
