Book Overview

This is the first time since 1967 that Fort Worth kids have had a history book written about their town, just for them. Unlike the outdated school text of 1967, this is the story not just of heroic white folks but of all the people who have made up our community. Twenty years and more of research went into the writing, which incorporates the latest historiography.

The wealth of illustrations by artist Deran Wright are an integral part of the book. Wright carefully researched the people and events for each full-color painting, reaching out to descendants for photos and researching what long-ago machinery and locations looked like. The result is the story of Fort Worth told equally in words and pictures.
