Helotes: Where the Texas Hill Country Begins

By Cynthia Leal Massey

"This chronicle of a small Texas town combines meticulous research with absorbing subject matter. Cynthia Massey's engaging style makes effortless reading. Not only is the book filled with fascinating episodes from the past, even the family histories-that could have been about as appealing as the biblical 'begats'-are intriguing. Here is a definitive study that is sure to draw praise not only from local readers but from all historians of the Southwest. "Aspiring chroniclers, here is your model! I, for one, couldn't put thisbook down." -Florence Weinberg, Professor Emerita of French and Spanish language and literature, Trinity University, and author of The Wine and the Will: Rabelais's Bacchic Christianity.
