Crossing Lines
Crossing Lines addresses the issues of race and mixed race at the turn of the 21st century.

Footsteps in the Dark
Most pop songs are short-lived. They appear suddenly and, if they catch on, seem to be everywhere at once before disappearing again into obscurity.

History and Legends of the Alamo and Other Missions in and Around San Antonio
Originally published in 1917 by Adina de Zavala, this volume reconstructs the history of the Alamo back to pre-colonial times.

At a time when Texas Mexican women held little influence, de Zavala attempted to rewrite the way Texas history was written and constructed. This milestone literary work includes historical maps, plates, diary accounts and other records.
