Greetings from San Antonio: Historic Postcards of the Alamo City is a collection of more than six hundred color and black-and-white photo postcards, many of them quite rare, that yield a compelling visual narrative of the city in the early twentieth century, when postcards were at their height of popularity. Presented unaltered and accompanied by concise descriptive text, the postcards provide a distinctive visual portrait of a captivating and unique city during the early years of its transformation into the multicultural mecca it is today.

Excerpt from The Alamo City Guide, San Antonio, Texas: Being a Historical Sketch of the Ancient City of the Alamo, and Business Review He who writes the history of San Antonio writes the history of Texas, and although many writers have dealt with separate events, no one has yet presented a complete history of the city. Nor is it our intention at this time to attempt such a _task, but merely to give a few of the more notable events of the past as a guide to tourists who wish to visit the various points of interest about the city in a limited time. We will therefore first give a historical sketch of the city, and then tell how to see the city to the best advantage in the least time, adding such tables and special articles as will prove of value to strangers and others.
