Travel to the Texas frontier with your library
Deborah Tarsiewicz
Frontier Texas! is a museum that celebrates the Texas Frontier located just a short 10 minute walk from the Abilene Public Library Main location. You’ll want to check it out this summer in particular as the library’s own Tony Redman will take part in special live reenactments this summer in the Frontier Texas! courtyard.
A short drama will bring to life the shootout at the Cattlemen’s Exchange. Free, and open to the public, shows begin Saturday, May 29 at noon and continues every Saturday thereafter (except June 12) until July 10. For more information, head to the website abilenevisitors.com/Historic-Saturday-Shootouts.

The Courageous Life and Death of Oliver Loving
In 1867, beneath a bluff a few miles from Carlsbad, New Mexico, two Texas cattlemen one of them a trail-hardened 52-year-old, the other a 23-year-old roughneck were fighting for their lives, surrounded by a marauding party of Comanches. If recorded at all, such an event would have been no more than a blip on the historical calendar of the American West, but this one and its aftermath turned out to be one of the most amazing examples of courage, loyalty and sheer grit in all the annals of the frontier.
