Kay Kronke Betz, Ph.D., and Vickie Moon Merchant, Ph.D., chronicle how Rockport-Fulton, whose economy was based on fishing, shrimping, and tourism, became a major regional center for the visual arts. Generously illustrated throughout with full-color images of boats, bays, and other hallmarks of this artistically rich community. This book is a visual and narrative treat for art lovers, conservationists, and historians alike.
The book is being published by TAMU Press.
