What a difference time and perspective can make on how we view things in the world!
The goal of this post is to consider that opening line along with further introducing you to the work of Mary Austin Holley, give a peak into how people viewed Texas and the Comanches in the early 1830s, along with asking you to consider how our opinions and perspectives change over time. A tall task but I think you can do it.There's also a little bit on Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove. What did Larry think of the situation. And more importantly--how did Charles Goodnight deal with the Comanches and Kiowas and vice versa?
