5.0 out of 5 stars
A sparkling look at a way of life past,
By David Syring (Duluth, MN, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yesterday in the Texas Hill Country (Paperback)
This book is a treasure trove of details of a past time when the hill country moved to very different rhythms than it does today. Jordan wrote this book at the insistence of his son, who is a cultural geographer interested in regional lifeways. If you've ever had a twinge of nostalgia for the hill country's past you should read this book. At the risk of sounding my own horn, if you like this book or are interested in the past of the hill country and how it is valued today, take a look at my book, "Places in the World a Person Could Walk" for more reading. I'm an anthropologist whose family is from the hill country, and my study adds to the conversation about the meaning of the hill country's past that Jordan began.
