Abilene photographer Bill Wright worked among and studied the Tigua Indians of Ysleta, Texas, for more than six years, making his own distinguished images and collecting documentary photographs of the tribe from among the Tigua themselves and from sources across the United States. His research in their history, his interviews with Tigua leaders, tribal members, and his magnificent collection of photographs, rare historical pictures and his own incomparable contemporary images, combine to make a unique modern study of these, the oldest Texans. Included is an extensive bibliography of sources and a list of Tigua tribal officers and members.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Tiguas: Pueblo Indians of Texas (Hardcover)
In this particular book, Bill Wright introduces us to a little known group of people who have an interesting history. After reading this book, you will want to visit them in their West Texas setting. Bill is an accomplished historian who does his research thoroughly. Its apparent that he connects with these people; and, then shares their story in a very compelling manner. Bill is a gifted photographer with many credits to his name; a great story teller and a good human being. All of his books are worthy reading; we routinely give copies of them to new neighbors and friends.
