Phantoms of the Plains Tales of West Texas Ghosts

Plano, TX: Republic of Texas Pr, 1996 This book introduces the reader to far West Texas, where spirits of former inhabitants have found good reason to remain "home on the range." Haunting the high mesas and rolling plains, these depart souls seem gripped with a purpose not realized in life. Author Docia Schultz Williams has assumed her skillful role as reporter and chronicled accounts of the unexplained. These stories of ghostly encounters, including accounts of early settlers and Indians and reports of ghosts and hauntings connected with the old West Texas forts are gleaned from housewives, students, doctors, lawyers, and even psychics who have become witnesses to traumatic events long past. 272 pages with index and and leads; illustrated with black & white photos. 8 1/2" by 5 1/2" wide.
