"The nineteenth-century Texas Hill Country functioned as a kind of borderland within
the larger borderland of Texas itself, a vast and fluid area where the slaveholding
South and the nominally free-labor West collided. And as in many borderlands, it was
a place marked by violence, as one set of peoples, states, and systems eventually
triumphed over others. This book trace the role of violence in the region from the
eve of the Civil War, through the crisis of secession and the Indian wars, and into
the Reconstruction period, ultimately showing how patterns of violence both defined
and revealed the priorities of white settlers in the Hill Country--most importantly,
the advancement of market integration and state-building in the broader Southwest"
