“We all fell in love with Austin at first sight. Writing Austin’s Lives helps explain why.” Arnold Garcia, Jr., Editorial Page Editor, Austin American-Statesman
The Austin History Center Association in partnership with the University of Texas Humanities Institute presents a living history that you won’t find in any guidebook or newspaper. 127 stories of Austin’s many lives as seen through the eyes and told in the voices of its people. They paint a unique portrait of the Texas capital at the start of the 21st century. Readers will find this book to be filled with striking moments of recognition and surprise, of delight and sadness, and of inspiration.
