Southwestern Historical Quarterly
Carrefio, Alberto Maria. Nuestros vecinos del norte. Mexico,
Ediciones Victoria, 1937. 342 PP.
Date of observation: Around 1914.
Ambassador Carrefio stopped for a short while in San Antonio
(p. 35), but he was less interested in this city than he was in chatting
with a Mexican laborer in San Marcos (pp. 36-37). In Austin (pp. 39-
48) he comments briefly on the history of the city but reacts most
unfavorably to state officials. He condemns the governor ("Mr. C.")
as a "typical. cowboy" who has gone into politics and sees only
demagoguery and ill manners in the Texas House of Representatives.
Cazamian, Madeleine L. L'autre Amerique. Paris, Librairie Hon-
ord Champion, 1931. 328 pp.
Date of observation: 1924.
Pages 142-144 contain a brief but vivid account of the Texas land-
scape as the writer observed it from a train window on a trip from
Houston to the New Mexico border.
Cereseto, Pedro L. Panorama de America; impresiones de una
estadia en los Estados Unidos de Amdrica, Mexico y otros paises
americanos. Tandil (Argentina), 1948. 117 pp.
Date of observation: 1944 and 1945.
Texas (pp. loo-lol) is described as a colorful and verdant land-
scape dotted with cotton fields. Dallas (pp. lo1-1o2) impresses Cere-
seto with its modern buildings and colorful Negro and Mexico popu-
lation. San Antonio and Laredo (pp. 102-103) are interesting to
Cereseto primarily for their large Mexican populations.
Chadbourne, Marc. Tour de la terre; extreme occident. Paris,
Librairie Plon, 1935. 250 pp.
Date of observation: Shortly before publication.
Chadbourne leaves the South via San Antonio and El Paso, where
