New Page added to Familias de Terlingua - Books

10/5/2009

2 Comments

 
We have added a page, Libros de Terlingua, that has three books that some contributors have told us were of interest to them.  They have links to Amazon.com so that if you decide to buy them through the link you will become a contributor to Familias de Terlingua to help defray the costs we incur. 

But selling books is not the main purpose of Familias de Terlingua.  So the main purpose of the page is to create awareness of other sources of information relating to Terlingua.  You may decide to check the books out of the library.

By the way Juan Manuel Casas, the author of one of those books shown on the page has posted a comment in the Family Discussions.  Check it out.

Note that it is the intention of Familias de Terlingua not to take stands on issues but rather to provide a forum where they can surface and inform us all.  So we welcome Juan Manuel Casas' thoughts on how Terlingua history has been presented.  If you get curious enough, read his book and tell us what you think.

Three people I have told about the Terlingua web site, have called me back and said the book Drug Lord by Terrance Pope is a good book about Pablo Acosta,
who lived in the area of Terlingua.
I have not read the book so I do not know
anything about it.
