From the How They Lived series - easy-to-read books in which historical settings are vividly described and drawn for young readers. In Lidworth Castle, several hundred years ago, lived Joan, the baron's twelve-year-old niece who was learning the duties of a lady, and young Thomas, the scullion who cleaned the pots, carried water, lit the fires and was harried by the cook. In the vivid approachable style of this commended series, Carol Adams shows what life was like for them and for the rest of the great household - from knights and ladies to craftsmen, soldiers and servants.

Settlers coming to the Katy area in the mid-1800s found a cane-filled creek on the vast coastal prairie. The area became known as Cane Island. When the Missouri-Kansas-Texas (MKT) Railroad laid tracks in the 1890s, a stop 30 miles west of Houston was needed to refill the water tanks on steam engines. Land agents were hired to find residents for a town, and in 1896, that town was named Katy. Early residents were farmers and ranchers, and businesses opened to support a growing community. By the mid-1900s, rice farming dominated thousands of acres. The crops brought migrating birds, and hunting became a second industry. Now known as one of the fastest growing and most desirable locations in the nation, Katy's roots are firmly planted in an area with rich history and a growing population that is working hard to preserve it.
