Excerpt from Texas as It Is: Or, the Emigrants' Guide, the Result of Travel, Inquiry and Observation
Much time and means are expended by persons who hope to better their condition, by a change of locality in travelling and endeavoring to find the places in which their skill and industry may be used to the best advantage. This belief has induced me to present the following pages, the result of observation and travel in Texas.
Availing myself as fully as possible of every facility for gaining information, I feel assured that the facts contained in this publication will be found interesting to readers generally.
As my visit to Texas was limited, and not travelling over the entire state, I pretend not to verify every fact from my own observation, much information was obtained from many of the oldest residents, gentlemen of the highest intelligence; such facts will be found no less accurate than those witnessed by myself.
Those who have visited its waving prairies, and travelled over many of its elevated plains, noticed the beauty of its scenery, and the productions of its soil, marked the softness of its winter breezes, plucked some of the gay flowers that in winter may be found on its verdant plains, and observed the numerous herds of fat cattle that feed unattended upon the products of its prairie in winter, can bear testimony that nothing herein contained is exaggerated.
Should this work furnish useful information to the thousands who are seeking homes, and aid this great state in increasing her industrious and intelligent population, the object for which it is published will be accomplished.
