From the critically acclaimed author of T.R. and the Pulitzer Prize finalist THE FIRST AMERICAN - biographies of Theodore Roosevelt and Benjamin Franklin - comes a gripping, true story about Texas' turbulent journey to statehood. Filled with a colorful cast of characters, including the state's reluctant founder Stephen Austen, the Mexican generalissimo and dictator Santa Ana, the mythologized defenders of Alamo - James Bowie, William Travis, and Davy Crockett - as well as the slaves, squatters, women and children all unmentioned in the traditional histories, this fascinating account of one of the most pivotal eras in American history is told with Brands' characteristic eye to fact and compelling story-telling.TALB d Lone Star Nation - How a Ragtag Army of Courageous Volunteers Won the Battle for Texas IndependenceTCON NonfictionTRCK 1TXXX h OverDrive MediaMarkers
