       founders : the military settlers of eighteenth-century San

520    Faces of Bexar showcases the finest work of Jesús F. de la
       Teja, a foremost authority on Spanish colonial Mexico and 
       Texas through the Republic. These essays trace the arc of 
       the author's career over a quarter of a century. A new 
       bibliographic essay on early San Antonio and Texas history
       rounds out the collection, showing where Tejano history 
       has been, is now, and where it might go in the future. For
       de la Teja, the Tejano experience in San Antonio is a case
       study of a community in transition, one moved by forces 
       within and without. From its beginnings as an imperial 
       outpost to becoming the center of another, newer empire--
       itself in transition--the social, political, and military 
       history of San Antonio was central to Texas history, to 
       say nothing of the larger contexts of Mexican and American
       history. Faces of Bexar explores this and more, including 
       San Antonio's origins as a military settlement, the 
       community's economic ties to Saltillo, its role in the 
       fight for Mexican independence, and the motivations of 
       Tejanos for joining Anglo Texans in the struggle for 
       independence. Taken together, Faces of Bexar stands to be 
       a milestone in the growing literature on Tejano history.
