From the humble beginnings of a frontier army camp, Fort Worth
transformed into a city as cattle drives, railroads, oil and national
defense drove its economy. During the tremendous growth, the landscape
and cultural imprint of the city changed drastically, and much of
Cowtown was lost to history. Witness the birth of western swing music
and the death of a cloud dancer. See mansions of the well-heeled and
saloons of the well-armed. Meet two gunfighters, one flamboyant
preacher, one serial killer and one very short subway carrying
passengers back in time to discover more of Fort Worth. Author Mike
Nichols presents a colorful history tour from the North Side to the
South Side's Battle of Buttermilk Junction.
