Houston's Forgotten Heritage: Landscape, Houses, Interiors, 1824-1914

I bought this as a gift for a friend who is an avid gardener. I wanted the Jr. League garden book but discovered it was not available. I substituted for this one, and she has said it was a beautiful book and she loved it.

Received the book in the promised condition and in the promised amount of time. Well done!

The authors and contributors to this book worked deep in the fine details of Houston's past. So much of it has been lost to the ages, but with Houston's Forgotten Heritage, it almost comes back to life through the fine photographs of the opulent homes and even the log cabins. It is a joy to show this book to many of my "old-timer" neighbors, who remember a building here and there, and even the old fixtures, appliances, and ways of life. We should all be grateful to the authors of this book for reminding us of our glorious past.
