all the military engagements that
took place in the city and on Galveston Bay,

Bill Wright's BigBend
ByBillWright
The Big Bend is one of the last places left in
America that's a long way from anywhere.
In this book, Wright combines deeply observed
photographs with a beautifully
written text to offer an intimate portrait of
the people and the land of the Big Bend.
Covering an almost-fifty-year span, his
words and images capture both the timeless
quality of the region and the changes
that have followed in the wake of increasing
tourism and human settlement.
