description: " Blair, Williams &amp; Turner to Texas-1858 to 1873" is a true and poignant every-family story of the sweet hopes that brought more than 250,000 Southerners to North Texas in the 1850s, how they lived when they arrived, and the hardships that wounded, killed and scattered many of them on the Texas wind. Using family letters, contemporary accounts and historical research to tell the story of this family group, "Scatterlings" provides a human context for understanding life in North Texas during the second half of the nineteenth century.
