Denison was founded in 1872; when the Missouri-Kansas-Texas (MKT) Railroad established a terminus just south of the Red River. The small town quickly grew to hold a prominent place in the 19th-century American West; and it prospered alongside the railroad; becoming the gateway to Texas from the North. Denison has the distinction of being the birthplace of Pres. Dwight Eisenhower; the site of the first free; graded public school in Texas; and home to beautiful Lake Texoma. This book features a diverse collection of postcard images and takes readers on a journey through Denison�s colorful past.

Important in local historyBy CharlieWhile not a great literary this does provide an excellent photographic history of the this camp meeting town. Material is very useful in documenting architechtural history and outlining the development of the religious community. Recommended to those interested in this history or community.
