Remembering Dallas by Michael V Hazel

With a selection of fine historic images from his bestselling book Historic Photos of Dallas, Michael V. Hazel provides a valuable and revealing historical retrospective on the growth and development of Dallas. During the mid nineteenth century, Dallas emerged as a vibrant, commercial American city. At the turn of the century, Dallas continued to prosper, overcoming adversity and becoming a leading center of commerce in the southwestern United States. Remembering Dallas captures this journey through still photography selected from the finest archives. From the Civil War and the Great Depression, to the building of a modern metropolis, Remembering Dallas follows life, government, education, and events throughout the city's history. This volume captures unique and rare scenes as depicted in more than 100 historic photographs. Published in striking black-and-white, these images communicate historic events and everyday life of two centuries of people building a unique and prosperous city.
Michael V. Hazel is a native Dallasite and fifth-generation Texan. He has been an adjunct professor in history at both Southern Methodist University and the University of North Texas. Hazel has served as interim director of both the Dallas Historical Society and the Dallas County Heritage Society. Since 1989 he has edited a semiannual regional history journal, Legacies, focusing on Dallas and North Central Texas. He is the author of Dallas: A History of Big D and Dallas: A Dynamic Century, as well as editor of Dallas Reconsidered and Stanley Marcus from A to Z, the latter published by the University of North Texas Press.
