Tom, I greatly enjoyed this review. 2 other books that relate to this topic are “Sam Houston and the Alamo Avengers” by Brian Kilmeade and “Empire of the Summer Moon” by S. C. Gwynne. See you soon.
Great review! Sorry it took me so long to get to it.
This is great history because it makes a compelling case for why Texans are the way we are. Like any study of history, the readers should go away asking, “How can we utilize the character of our past in positive ways going forward? What do we want to reject or embrace from our ancestors?” It saddens me to think of Texas losing our unique heritage because we don’t really understand it.
