This classic work in Hispanic genealogy (1st ed., 1988) has been revised and edited by Alan Duaine, the author's son, with minor corrections while retaining the original text. The index has been significantly expanded to record all names mentioned in the text, with the bibliography similarly extended. Noted historian and illustrator, Jack Jackson from Austin, Texas, has contributed 15 masterful and dramatic pen and ink sketches. A major objective of this edition has been to make it available and affordable to new generations of readers and researchers. With All Arms has become the "bible" for persons with roots in Northern Mexico. Duaine found--in the study of the ancestry of his mother, the daughter of Juan Rios and Macedonia Ramírez, both from Mier, Mexico--that many of the families who settled along the Rio Grande were related and that his grandmother's line tied in with many of the 150-200 families who settled New Spain's Northeastern Frontier. Major sources for the study came from civil and church records in Texas and Tamaulipas, Nuevo León, Coahuila, Durango and Zacatecas in Mexico.--From distributor information.

As the magazine of the Texas Exes, The Alcalde has united alumni and friends of The University of Texas at Austin for nearly 100 years. The Alcalde serves as an intellectual crossroads where UT's luminaries - artists, engineers, executives, musicians, attorneys, journalists, lawmakers, and professors among them - meet bimonthly to exchange ideas. Its pages also offer a place for Texas Exes to swap stories and share memories of Austin and their alma mater. The magazine's unique name is Spanish for "mayor" or "chief magistrate"; the nickname of the governor who signed UT into existence was "The Old Alcalde."
