Alpine Legacy Figures Portrait and Progress in 20th Century Texas
A compilation recounts Alpine figures from Scout leaders to Sul Ross College ties, noting G. A. Lindholm and H. H. Flachmeier among others, a Lions club meeting, and a Southern Pacific telegrapher Louis Starns. It traces Starns contributions from a 1907 telegraph post to Alpine mayor and champion of Big Bend National Park, and links to Starns Field aviation and Sul Ross State College history.
