Old Roads in South Texas by W G Southerland
W G Southerland surveys Texas road history from ancient routes to modern highways. He traces Roman and Native trails, Spanish colonial roads, and 19th century fences that reshaped travel between the Nueces and Rio Grande, noting salt lakes, wagon freights, and eventual road-building momentum into the automobile era.
