An Immigrant Miller Picks Texas

In 1848 Carl Hilmar Guenther, 22, arrived in New York from Germany. In two years he was in Texas. The mill he built has evolved into a major San Antonio-based food products company, long known as Pioneer Flour Mills. These letters detail his adventures to Wisconsin and down the Mississippi, then report the joys and anguish of getting established on the Texas frontier.
