What some of your neighbors are saying about
THE NEW FRONTIER:
A Contemporary History of Fort Worth and Tarrant County
"Tarrant County and the City of Fort Worth have a wealth of interesting facts and people with fascinating
stories that should be preserved for generations to enjoy. What better way than with our own book I wish
you much success in your endeavors to compile what will be an impressive amount of interviews and photo-
graphs to capture the spirit and preserve the heritage on the grand scale necessary."
- Mike Moncrief
Mayor, City of Fort Worth
"The Stockyards business Association and the Tarrant County Historical Society's partnership in creating
and publishing a book of history and stories about Fort Worth and Tarrant County is a great idea which I
fully endorse. This type of project produces a heirloom of knowledge which will become priceless over time,
and will help us preserve the heritage of the region which by its nature is constantly eroding."
