In Land Is the Cry! Susanne Starling tells the fascinating story of Warren Angus Ferris, Rocky Mountain fur trader, surveyor, farmer, and "Father of Dallas County". Ferris was one of the two founders of Dallas, along with land speculator William P. King. But Ferris merited fame even before he came to Texas in 1837, for his remarkable story encompasses three arenas: the Niagara frontier of western New York, the fur-trading country of the Rocky Mountains, and frontier northeast Texas during the years of the Republic. Ferris served as the official surveyor for Nacogdoches County, which then included much of northeast Texas. Warren Ferris spent another thirty-five years of his eventful life in Texas.
The Texas State Historical Association is pleased to partner with the Collin County Historical Society to make Seymour V. Connor's The Peters Colony of Texas available once again. This classic work of Texas history, long out of print, was praised by John H. Jenkins in Basic Texas Books as "the best study of one of the largest land grants in Texas history." The TSHA first published The Peters Colony of Texas in 1959. The Peters Colony, totaling 16,000 square miles of North Texas, now includes twenty-six counties. Jenkins called it "a masterpiece of weaving together the threads of an extremely difficult historical puzzle with only the meagerest of source materials." For many years the book, with its documentation of early migration to Texas, was available to the public only in noncirculating library collections and an occasional appearance on the rare book market. The TSHA and the Collin County Historical Society are pleased to offer a paperback edition of The Peters Colony of Texas to bring this significant work of Texas history back to public attention.
An illustrated history of Beaumont, Texas, paired with histories of the local companies.

Dallas has over 400 individual parks, including community centers, swimming pools, athletic fields, and a metropolitan zoo.
