Dallas Texas White Pages

When a Texas debutante bows her forehead to the floor in the famous "Texas dip", society columnists all across the country speculate interminably over what it is that sets Texas women apart. But really, how could they know? Even women born and bred in Texas - the daughters of generations of Texans - can't always answer that question. Prudence Mackintosh comes very close to an answer, though, in this endlessly entertaining book. Writing with both a wry sense of humor and an insider's compassion, she offers us a fascinating, nose-against-the-glass look into the world of privileged, educated, well-married, well-connected, and mostly wealthy white Texas women. What really sets these women apart, Ms. Mackintosh tells us, is the comfortable yet demanding path they follow from their idyllic girlhoods to positions of prominence - either in their own right or as the wives, mothers, and daughters of prominent men. In eleven essays, some of which originally appeared in Texas Monthly magazine, she charts the way stations that mark this path: summer camps in the Texas Hill Country, exclusive private schools like Dallas' Hockaday, sorority membership, and acceptance into the Junior League. Prudence Mackintosh has been both an outsider and an insider in this privileged world, and she knows its ways. Whether she's writing about the elaborate rituals of pledge week in the 1960s, or the ambivalent ties that bind white women and the women of color who work in their homes, or the achievements of such prominent figures as Barbara Jordan, Ann Richards, and Liz Carpenter, her observations are shot through with wit and real insight. Just As We Were may not be the final word on elite Texas women, but no oneelse has described their world with more irony and accuracy than Prudence Mackintosh.

As we begin a new millennium, we tend to look back to the opening pages of the twentieth century. How did we preserve our memories of those days and times? Rick Hyman's family, who first traveled by covered wagon from Virginia to southern Texas after being freed from slavery, preserved family history as many of us do -- by taking photographs of social occasions and filling drawers with memorabilia ranging from dried corsages to jewelry. It was in the dresser drawer of a Texas relative that Hyman discovered three hundred black and white photographs (1912-1927) depicting the life of his Texas family who, after being freed from slavery for only one generation, prospered on their Texas oil land. Those two thousand acres in Fayette County fed cattle and provided the Henderson Martin family with horses and carriages, a stage coach, four cars, plenty of silver, and fancy clothes. The images captured on film illustrate the success of an African-American family in rural Texas and show women wearing impressive jewelry that is now part of the Hyman Collection. Hyman is eager to share this rare glimpse of African-American life in the 1920s -- life beyond the glitz of the Harlem Renaissance that so often depicts the culture during that period of American history. Rick and his wife, Ronda, have carefully cataloged the well-preserved black and white vintage photographs and presented them in this new book along with color prints of his artistic interpretations of the images. Hyman's unique art form captures the ironies of the time in strikingly vibrant colors: the formal dresses and Model-T Ford against a rural backdrop; the financial success of a family with their feet barely out of slavery; andthe proud look that was forty years ahead of the black pride movement in America.
