A guide through the history of the Playground of the Southwest. Established in 1839, Galveston was the largest city in Texas for much of the state’s early history. The island city has hosted the likes of Cabeza de Vaca, Jean Lafitte, Sam Houston, Jack Johnson, King Vidor, and Sam Maceo. A strategic target during the Civil War and military stronghold during both World Wars, Galveston endured through countless calamities, including the most damaging hurricane to hit the United States. From historic mansions to long-hidden outposts of the vice district, author Tristan Smith surveys the best places to catch a glimpse of the Oleander City’s past, whether that comes in the form of museum treasure or Seawall panorama.
