Customer Reviews

Texas History at its best

Calling Altsheler a "children's book writer" is as limiting as saying Mark Twain "wrote light comedy." Read this tale of the epic struggle for Texas independence from Mexico and you'll see why JA was one of the best selling American writers for three decades.
