- W1559942083 abstract "Many sites in the south central states recall the procession of people who came across the continent with the passing frontier. This paper elaborates on several historic sites in the south central United States. The purpose of the paper is to introduce a series of places to the students and teachers of U.S. history. The paper recommends that interested students pursue a study of the important people and significant events associated with a site. It suggests using the Internet for maps, pictures, photos, and general information. The paper provides a short description of the heritage of select sites in Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. (Contains 13 suggestions for further reading.)

HISTORIC AMERICA: THE SOUTH CENTRAL STATES Boot Hill in Dodge City and Inscription Rock in New Mexico are but two manifestations of the westward movement in the south central states. Still other examples exist, sites that recall the procession of people who came across the continent with the passing frontier. Towns, fortresses, and old ports bring to mind the lives of Bat Masterson, Billy the Kid, and Judge Roy Bean. But other lifestyles thrived here, too. In Louisiana, French and Hispanic influences resulted in a mix of architectural styles that can be seen in the homes in New Orleans' Vieux Carre'. In other places sod houses and log cabins have been preserved, tributes to those who homesteaded the plains. Elsewhere Indian pueblos are testament to the ways of life that prospered hundreds ofyears before the arrival of Europeans. Like other parts of the country, the south central states have also had their presidents, military men, literary figures, and folk heroes. President Truman was a product of the region. And Andrew Jackson rose to fame here when he fought the British in the last battle of the War of 1812 at Chalmette, Louisiana. Present also are the homes of Mark Twain and Daniel Boone. Offered below are a few of these sites (America's Historic Places 1988; Smithsonian Guides 1998; Exploring America's Historic Places 1997). A short description of some aspect of their western heritage is included. The purpose is to introduce a series of places to the students and teachers of American history.
