I have a guest visiting Dallas and would like to provide him with a
brief history of the city of Dallas, no longer than 5 pages.

Hello tricia1234-ga,

I?ve found about a dozen websites offering a short history of the City
of Dallas. They all cover the same territory ? just with a slightly
different flavor. They all offer additional links for continuing the
exploration of topics of special interest.

I hope your visitor has a wonderful time.
