Isolated on the northern frontier of New Spain and often forgotten by authorities far away, the people of Laredo became as grand” as the river that flowed by their town and left an enduring legacy in a world of challenges and changes. Because of its documentary nature,Life in Laredo offers insights into the nitty-gritty of the comings and goings of its early citizens not to be found elsewhere.

He also details rebellious military and invading foreigners among the early settlers and later townspeople.
Scholars and students of Texas and Mexican American history, as well as the Laredoans celebrating the 250th anniversary (in 2005) of Laredo’s founding, will welcome this volume.
