Through twenty detailed chapters, readers will journey across:

The founding and early settlement of Corpus Christi
The rise of the port and maritime trade
Industrial growth, oil, and chemical manufacturing
Hurricanes and environmental challenges that shaped the city
Recreation, and community events
Infrastructure, urban development, and technological innovation
Tourism, cultural life, and the coastal economy
Education, research, and the city's future trajectory

With a preface and afterword framing the city's enduring resilience and vision, Corpus Christi: A Coastal City's History, Industry, and Resilience offers a comprehensive, engaging look at a city that continues to thrive at the intersection of land, sea, and human ambition.

Perfect for residents, historians, tourists, or anyone curious about the Gulf Coast, this book combines vivid storytelling, historical detail, and forward-looking insight into one of Texas's most fascinating cities.
