Del Rio : Queen City of the Rio Grande [softcover]. Charleston, South Carolina : Arcadia, 2002. 160 pgs. local accession # 48619 gift $18.99. Del Rio's roots grew in the sandy soil by San Felipe Creek along with the myths and dreams of the old Wild West, where the mighty Rio Grande dances through the study lands of the Lone Star State. Ancient nomads left their mark in the riverside canyons of this border country long before the springs at Del Rio became a lonely waystation providing water and rest to travelers, merchants, and soldiers marching the long, hot, and dry San Antonio-El Paso Road. 20030121.
