  • Mapping-Texas-History-Colonization-To
    INTRODUCTION TO SECOND EDITION The Alamo's Texas Maps for Teachers recognizes that history and geography are inseparable. This project was conceived after listening to teachers voice their concerns that current maps detailing Texas early history were inadequate for their needs. These new maps have been designed by educators for educators. A textual description for each map was written by Dr. Richard B. Winders, Historian & Curator for the Alamo. Dr. Donald S. Frazier, Professor of History at McMurry University in Abilene, Texas, produced the maps. The two educators have worked together on other projects for publishers Houghton Mifflin and Macmillan Reference. Texas Maps for Teachers has several different uses: It is a supplemental reader for teachers unfamiliar with Texas History. The comprehensive overview of important events and themes should be useful to any teacher. Overhead transparencies of the maps it can be produced for use in the classroom by scanning them into a computer and printing them onto commercially available transparency film. Used in combination with the textual descriptions, Texas Maps for Teachers can be used as a mini-textbook for Texas history from 1700 through 1850. The Alamo would like to thank several individuals who contributed their time by reviewing and commenting on this project at various stages. Dr. Ron Tyler, Executive Director of the Texas State Historical Association, offered valuable suggestions that were incorporated into the text and maps. Two teacher in San Antonio's North East Independent School District provided input from their respective grade levels: Barbara Yost, Windcrest Elementary School and Michael Bailey, Omar N. Bradley Middle School.

This report is being compiled so that drainage-area information of uniform accuracy and reliability will be avail able to all users of these data for any foreseeable hydraulic, hydrologic, or gen eral engineering use. In 1951 the Subcommittee on Hydrology, Federal Inter-Agency River Basin Com mittee, delegated the U. S.

Geological Survey as the official coordinating agency for all other river basins in Texas. In November 1954 the data for the Red and Arkansas Rivers were published by the Corps of Engineers in a pamphlet entitled "Drainage Area Data, Arkansas, White, and Red River Basins."
