Book excerpt: For over forty years, historians, tourists, and especially King William neighbors have relied on the 1970s edition of The King William Area for reference, guidance and entertainment, this edition updates, corrects, and expands the original. Exquisite photographs of each house in the oldest designated residential historic district in Texas are supplemented with short histories and architectural descriptions. This narrative historical record is a coffee table conversation-starter and a field guide to the neighborhood. It tells the stories of the houses: their beginnings, who built them, and something of the people who lived there throughout the years. The combined perspective of the authors of this volume span almost 70 consecutive years of neighborhood history.
