Dallas Tough: Historic Tales of Grit, Audacity, and Defiance
MSU Affiliation
College of Arts and Sciences; Department of Communication, Media and Theatre
Abstract
The history of Dallas is speckled with the lean, the determined and the obstinately opinionated—fighters who brought the city up out of the prairie. Ride with Nicholas Sparks, who christened the soil with his blood, and stand with Henry Ervay, the mayor who challenged one of the most powerful governors Texas has known. Bonnie Parker shot her way to infamy, while Corinne Maddox solved her stalker problem with two pocket guns. Herbert Noble pushed his luck to the breaking point. Jacob Rubenstein avenged his fallen idol. Accompany Josh Foreman and Ryan Starrett into a largely forgotten Dallas, where citizenship was a matter of gumption.
