Once the county seat of Calhoun County, Indianola once had a population of more than 5,000 before a major hurricane destroyed the town in 1875, The town was rebuilt and again destroyed by a second hurricane in 1886. Linda Wolff goes into great detail in bringing the rich history of Indianola and Matagorda Island to life in this book. Designated a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1963. In addition to the history also provides a guide to the wildflowers, the birds, the wildlife and brings the reader to current time and the Matagorda Island State Park.
