Synopsis "Saltgrass Prairie Saga: A German American Family in Texas de jim Burnett(Texas a & m Univ pr)"

Texas during the Civil War period is often viewed through the lenses of military tactics and the state's role in the Confederacy. But what was life like for the families who endured wartime separation? How did women ensure stability at home while their husbands, fathers, and brothers were ordered away to risk their lives? How did families remain connected despite separation and the pressures of survival? In Saltgrass Prairie Saga, John and Johanette Stengler, with their seven children in tow, leave the small central German village of Dietz and land in Galveston on New Year's Eve, 1845: two days after Texas officially joined the United States. The world this family entered is contextualized through military reports, newspaper articles, personal correspondence, and local and state records. Significantly, author Jim Burnett ensures the voices of women are preserved. The book is complete with maps, illustrations, and photographs. Blending life and settlement on the frontier, the early years of the Texas cattle trade, the waves of immigration during the period, and the impact of the Civil War, Saltgrass Prairie Saga offers a fresh view of a pivotal period in Texas history.
