This volume of proceedings is introduced by the paper Warren presented at the first conference, an essay that provides a firm basis and raison d’etre for the symposium’s overall theme, chronicling Houston philanthropist Ima Hogg’s life-long effort to bring American colonial and Federal objects—material culture—to Texas.
Additional papers by distinguished scholars Margaretta M. Lovell, the symposium’s keynote speaker, Kelly Donahue-Wallace, Lonn Taylor, and Jill Beute Koverman round out the collection, placing the pre-1900 material culture of Texas, the lower South, and the Southwest within a national and international context.
