The Walter Prescott Webb Memorial Lectures: no. 28

Abstract

THE ESSAYS IN THIS VOLUME are an outcome of the Twenty-eighth Annual Walter Prescott Webb Memorial Lectures held at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA). The theme of the 1993 lectures-Changing Images of the Southwest-has a broad appeal to scholars, students, and the interested public. By focusing on the Southwest, these essays also call attention to UTA's growing commitment to encourage historical scholarship in the region. These efforts have gained increased recognition through the creation in 1991 of the UTA Center for Greater Southwestern Studies and the History of Cartography. The center itself complements and works closely with the university library's Special Collections-a major archive of historical documents, maps, prints, and other materials-encompassing the vast region of the Greater Southwest.
