520 |a "This collection of stories sets out a first-person account of a family who moved from Memphis, Tennessee, in the late 1800s to Hobart, Oklahoma, and then to Texas, back to Oklahoma and back again to Texas. The Oklahoma stint afforded a memory of Geronimo, so the indecision of the family bore this fruit, if no other. Through Celia Hill's lens we learn about life in the western part of Texas as she grew to become a competent cowgirl and later a schoolteacher. Except for an epilogue Celia wrote about a homecoming for the people who lived in Terlingua prior to 1946, we have nothing from her own hand about her life after 1945. But an interview by Bob Phillips of Texas Country Reporter in 2006 gives us more of her story and interviews with her son, Rusty Hill, fill in more gaps"--  |c Provided by publisher.
