In Notable Men and Women of Spanish Texas, Donald Chipman and Harriett Joseph combined dramatic, real-life incidents, biographical sketches, and historical background to reveal the real human beings behind the legendary figures who discovered, explored, and settled Spanish Texas from 1528 to 1821. Drawing from their earlier book and adapting the language and subject matter to the reading level and interests of middle and high school students, the authors here present the men and women of Spanish Texas for young adult readers and their teachers. These biographies demonstrate how much we have in common with our early forebears. Profiled in this book are: Alvar Nez Cabeza de Vaca: Ragged Castaway Francisco Vázquez de Coronado: Golden Conquistador Mara de Agreda: Lady in Blue Alonso de Len: Texas Pathfinder Domingo Terán de los Ros / Francisco Hidalgo: Angry Governor and Man with a Mission Louis St. Denis / Manuela Sánchez: Cavalier and His Bride Antonio Margil de Jess: God's Donkey Marqus de San Miguel de Aguayo: Chicken War Redeemer Felipe de Rábago y Terán: Sinful Captain Jos de Escandn y Elguera: Father of South Texas Athanase de Mzires: Troubled Indian Agent Domingo Cabello: Comanche Peacemaker Marqus de Rub / Antonio Gil Ibarvo: Harsh Inspector and Father of East Texas Bernardo Gutirrez de Lara / Joaqun de Arredondo: Rebel Captain and Vengeful Royalist Women in Colonial Texas: Pioneer Settlers Women and the Law: Rights and Responsibilities
