Meet Christine Hopkins, Author of 100 things to do in Galveston before you die! Since before the modem attractions arrived, Galveston has been a hidden gem along the Texas Gulf Coast. One of the wealthiest cities in the Southwest in the
late nineteenth century, Galveston was home to railroad barons, cotton kings, and banking tycoons, all making their money from the lucrative Port of Galveston. But all that came to an end when a hurricane in 1900 devastated the island, killing some six thousand people and wiping out most buildings in its path.
