No matter how far we may wander, Texas lingers with us, coloring our perceptions of the world.
— Elmer Kelton, Texas Western Fiction Author
Next up from the NCHM Book Club: Empire of the Summer Moon by S. C. Gwynne.
Long considered a classic, Empire of the Summer Moon chronicles the lives of Cynthia Ann Parker, her son Quanah Parker, and the final decades of Comanche dominance in Texas.
Winner of the Texas Book Award and the Oklahoma Book Award and finalist for both the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award, Empire of the Summer Moon is a must-read for anyone serious about understanding Texas history.
