Of course we are biased but the Rio Grande Guardian Book Club highly recommends any and all of author José Antonio López’s early Texas history books.
They will make a great present this holiday season.
José Antonio’s monthly columns have been gracing the pages of the Rio Grande Guardian for almost a decade now. They are so good that other august publications, such as the San Antonio Express-News, ask if they can be republished. We always say yes. Many of the columns are based on the research José Antonio did for his books.
Here is a list of the books:
Caroline Castillo Crimm, Ph.D., professor emeritus at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas, provided this testimonial on José Antonio:
“Joe Lopez, over the past few years, has provided his public with short, single-page cogent and clear explanations of topics dealing with Hispanic/Tejano settlements in Texas. His email alerts are accurate, brief and to the point. For the first time in my experience I have a chance to read fascinating insights into often mistaken assumptions about the history of Hispanics and Tejanos in Texas and their successes in settling Texas. Joe is an amazing historian, a careful researcher and an inspiring author on the history of early Texas. His articles are not to be missed.”
