In Texas Women the authors, who have been researching the world of
women in the Lone Star State for over thirty years, continue their
documentation of the heritage and influence of Texas' pioneering 
women by presenting biographies of twenty-four noted women of Texas, 
from the nineteenth-century writer Jane Cazneau to twentieth-century
politician Kay Bailey Hutchinson.

women in particular, than Crawford and Ragsdale have written.  Their
sense of 'a story' directs their substantial research into a readable
and informative portrait of their subjects. . . . a job well done."—Jane
L. Bouterse, Writers at Work

"Texas Women is a delight."—The Brazosport Facts

"Clear, enjoyable, and readable."—East Texas Historical Association
