| Abstract | Narrative account of life in early Texas. Dr. Ferdinand Roemer, a German scientist, traveled through Texas (1945-1847) and recorded his observations in detail. His primary purpose was geological studies, but he was also interested in the plant life, animal life, and the daily life of the settlers and Indians; he was especially conscious of the German settlements, and attempted to evaluate all those aspects of Central Texas critical to the creation of a homeland for German immigrants. |
