Samuel May Williams Early Texas Entrepreneur by Margaret Swett Henson

Samuel May Williams, businessman, land speculator, banker, father of the Texas navy, and co-founder of Galveston--a man often neglected by historians--frequently set aside his own interests to advance the development of Texas and its economy, a less romantic but perhaps no less vital role than that of more popular Texas folk heroes.

1976 Summerfield G. Roberts Award, sponsored by the Sons of the Republic of Texas.
