Next Meeting: July 15 at 7:00pm
Fort Bend Museum Exhibit Gallery
410 South 5th Street, Richmond, Tx 77469

Speaker: Dave Dyer

Topic:
Author Dave Dyer will be presenting on his latest book, "The Road to San Jacinto: Retracing the Route of Sam Houston's Army." Dyer visited every campsite or important location to see what is there now and to look for the footprints of the Texian army. What is left over from this time? What is there now?

Using both primary and secondary sources, Dyer stitches together a historically accurate story of each site and illustrated it with his modern photos. Directions to each location are provided to encourage readers to visit.

Many of the sites have no historical markers and have been forgotten or ignored. The goal of this work is to encourage people to explore some forgotten local history by visiting these sites as a great way to gain an appreciation for Texas history.

All are welcome - the program is free and open to the public.
