Description: "One of the foundational documents of Mexican American history in Texas is a master's thesis written in 1929 at the University of Texas. It has never before been published. A woman, a folklorist, and a member of an ethnic minority in an era of Anglocentrism, Jovita Gonzalez created a study that has served as source material on the Texas-Mexican Borderlands for more than seventy-five years. Editor Maria Eugenia Cotera presents it in its full context and with annotations helpful to contemporary readers."--BOOK JACKET.
