Texas Furniture, Volume One
"More examples of Texas' rich heritage of locally made nineteenth-century furniture and information on the craftsmen who produced it"--
Texas Furniture, Volume Two
The art of furniture making flourished in Texas during the mid-nineteenth century. To document this rich heritage of locally made furniture, Miss Ima Hogg, the well-known philanthropist and collector of American decorative arts, enlisted Lonn Taylor and David B.

Footprints of Five Generations

Therefore, we gladly listen when Grandmother or Grandfather tells of that time: the pioneer days with their sorrows and joys! And so the children and grandchildren of Louise Fuchs have asked her to write down her Reminiscences, so that those days will not vanish for us in the stream of time. Frieda H. Fuchs
