Rising and Setting of the Lonestar Republic

This volume is not fiction. It contains a series of thrilling historic stories, as given by
the Texas pioneer settlers who experienced them and whose names are given with each
narrative. They give through pen-pictures and old photographs, a vivid insight to Texas pioneer life of the best class of settlers. These stories of the good old grandmother days, which are so dear to children and adults of all ages, contain as true to life, as they can remember them, stories of the birth of our nation, The Texas Lone Star Republic and of her adoption at her own request by the United States.
