Title: Must read and pictorial feast on Houston's heritage
Review: Del Pueblo is a must-read and pictorial feast for anyone interested in Houston's history--Hispanic or not. Dr. Kreneck's love of, and intimacy with, Houston's Hispanic community is evident throughout. The illustrations are excellently reproduced and the text clear and lively. This is not an in-depth treatise on everything Hispanic in southeast Texas, but rather a pictorial history of the impact Hispanics have had since the first Spanish explorers arrived in the 16th Century to the waves of immigrants that materially changed the face and texture of Houston at the end of the 20th. The book is enriched by the extensive use of primary records and photographs, many of which Dr. Kreneck was involved in adding to the holdings of the Houston Metropolitan Research Center as an archivist there.
