 The
Library of Texas is a series of new
editions of important firsthand accounts of
nineteenth-century Texas, initiated to fill a need for
well-introduced, well-indexed, and well-made editions of
classic books. A noted scholar has written a full
introduction to each volume, and the books are produced
to high typographic standards. They are uniform in size,
yet distinctive in design, printed on acid-free paper
and bound in attractive, enduring materials.
The Library of Texas
books are both handsome and useful, to be read with
confidence and pleasure for generations.
The Library of Texas was launched in 1991
by Tom Taylor, the premier printer in Texas. In 1996,
The Library of Texas
moved to SMU, where it is published jointly by
the
DeGolyer Library
and the Clements Center for Southwest Studies (with
assistance from the Carl B. and Florence E. King
Foundation).
