"I am REALLY
enjoying the book--particularly the way you have described the culture,
environment, and general conditions of the time, making me feel
as if I were there."
Jan Cook, Baton
Rouge, Louisiana
"Considering
I stayed awake until 2 a.m. reading it, with it having no murder
or love scenes, or even a recipe, my
take on the book is that it is very well written."
Ralph L. Elder,
Assistant Director, University Archives and Facilities, The Center
for American History, The University of Texas at Austin
"I am delighted
to acknowledge the receipt of your splendid book, Gholson Road:
Revolutionaries and Texas Rangers. Although I have not had a
chance to read Gholson Road, it appears to be rigorously
researched which, I'm sure, was a labor of love for you. We are,
of course, pleased that the resources here at the Center assisted
with your research. Your book will be cataloged and added to our
Texas Collection Library here at the Center where it will be available
to current and future generations of researchers."
John Anderson,
Preservation Officer, Texas State Library & Archives Commission

"I got my book
today and I sure have been enjoying reading it. You had lots of
things that I didn't ever hear of. I find it to be excellent and
informative and such good history of the Gholson Family. I enjoyed
your family tree and family pictures and just all of it.
. . . Thank you very much for the book . . . I will enjoy and cherish
it the rest of my life."

very much . . ."
Ruth Cleckler,

"I'm enjoying
your book. I started reading it a week or so ago. So much history.
I'm impressed by the research you did. I took the book with me Sun.
to show it to other members of the family. . . . All were impressed."
Nel Gholson, Austin,
Texas
"Just a note
to thank you for the Gholson Road. I have had a hard time putting
the book down when I get a chance to read it! I am only on Chapter
5 & I am amazed at all the information you have. How in the
world did you get all that history from way back in the fifteen
& sixteen hundreds? You are pretty talented, I must say. Dates
& land purchases etc. Really has a lot of history. When people
see the title, they assume it's strictly about the Gholsons, but
it's really so much more. . . ."
Janet Gholson
Morris
"I purchased
your book and it is wonderful. I learned things that I would never
have known. Thank you for all the time and effort that went into
this book."
Ken and Dee Dee
Gholson, Lampasas, Texas
"Your book is
outstanding!! We received it today and are looking forward to reading
it and sharing it with others."
Marjory Morris,

Enjoyed the book
"immensely."
Nancy Hudson,
Concord, California
Fascinating . . .
scholarly . . . great research . . . interesting history, even if
you're not a Gholson. Likes the eyewitness accounts for the authentic
flavor and they also maintain the total objectivity of the book.
Sidney Gholson
"I have just
finished reading your book; thank you for writing it. As a native
Texan as well as a Gholson, I found it hard to put down. The detail
of the hardships faced by early Texans was especially interesting
to me. I visited your great granddad's old home place about 10 years
ago and am glad to hear that restoration is underway. It will be
great to see the finished product."
Buddy Wayne Vaughn,
Retired History Teacher
"I ordered your
book and have read it almost without putting it down. I have really
enjoyed it and will read it again to glean out of it what I missed
the first time."
Patricia (Tissie)
Morris
"I think this
book is wonderful and informative. Everyone in the [Gholson] family
should have a copy to hand down to their children or grandchildren.
It is a great book about part of [the Gholson] family history."
Alex Golson, Theatre
Professor, Director & Author
"I just finished
reading your terrific book, Gholson Road. Congratulations
- very interesting and very well-written."
