Interwoven, A Pioneer Chronicle

Interwoven, A Pioneer Chronicle by Sallie Reynolds Matthews. Published by Texas A&M University Press, College Station, TX, 1997. Memorial Printing. Hardbound, Paper DJ. Size 8vo (up to 9-1/2'' tall). Condition: Fine in Good DJ. 230 Pgs. ISBN 0890961239. LCCN 81-48373. The author wrote this book so that her children and their children would know how their family and the Lambshead Ranch legacy grew on the Texas frontier. Far beyond her modest intentions, the book became a classic soon after its original publication in 1936. Nine children were born to Sallie and John Matthews. Their first child, Annie, died in infancy, and their last Watkins Reynolds Matthews, lived to be ninety-eight. This new printing of this book, which includes the original E M Schiwetz drawings and Sam Newcomb's diary of his trip through the Clear Fork range in 1864 is dedicated to the memory of Watt Matthews, who did so much to preserve his family's legacy.
