Two common threads - time and place - run through and bind this intriguing
anthology. Covering more or less a century, it chronicles the lives and
times of the settlers that toiled so hard to tame the last county in Texas
to be settled by outsiders. Moreover, the book offers the reader an unvarnished
glimpse into this small community that sprang up out of the prairie, thrived
and prospered, then wilted and eventually died - a victim of the industrial
revolution. Once you pick it up, you'll come back to this book time and
time again, gleaning a bit more insight with every reading. For even more

This
is Mr. Neal's latest work, and one that we believe will cement Bill's
reputation as one of the foremost authorities on the colorful courtroom
history of frontier Texans. Bill's distinguished career as a "country lawyer" allows
him keen insight into the workings of the frontier legal system. Mr.
Neal's dogged research and colorful presentation combine to bring
the reader a collection of fascinating true stories from another era.....some
call it Sagebrush Justice. Want to know more ? Just follow the link

So what does the term "Last Frontier"
really mean, anyway ? In
this context, it has little to do with space travel. Rather, it is that
place we sometimes call "the yoke of Texas" - the last area of the state
to be settled by outsiders. In the southeast corner of the Texas Panhandle
where the native Comanche roamed, only the strongest survived through
self-reliance, hard work, and faith in the Almighty. The life and times
of settlers, farmers and ranchers are brought to the pages in their own
words and through rare family photographs that will enthrall anyone with
an interest in story of the Westward Expansion. To learn more, just follow
