Despite that distinguishing feature, no published study covers the lives of African Americans in West Texas. This volume, \u003ci\u003eSlavery to Integration: Black Americans in West Texas\u003c\/i\u003e, seeks to fill that gap. \u003ci\u003eSlavery to Integration\u003c\/i\u003e consists of twelve articles depicting the basic themes and topics of the black American experience in West Texas. Drawing articles from the \u003ci\u003eWest Texas Historical Association Year Book\u003c\/i\u003e, the editors, Bruce A. Glasrud, Paul H. Carlson, and Tai D. Kreidler, selected well-written and enjoyable articles on the basis of chronology, topic, readability, scholarship, and interest. They include such topics as slavery, black cattlemen, buffalo soldiers, race relations, urban centers, education, desegregation, and integration. Read individually, each article explores an important aspect of African American history in West Texas and, read in aggregate, they cover black West Texas history broadly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBRUCE A.
