Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Texas With Davy Crockett: A Story of the Texas War of Independence Texas is now one of the greatest states of a great nation; but, at the date when our story begins, the larger part of its vast territory was almost an unbroken wilderness, where the Indians and the wild animals roamed as freely as they did when Columbus discovered America. A few hunters and trappers, little more civilized than the savages themselves, and now and then an American or a Mexican drover, who chased and captured for the Louisiana and the Sari Antonio markets the wild mustang ponies that roamed in great numbers over these vast solitudes, alone of white men traversed this wild region; and in all that immensity of prairie and forest and mountain and valley there was not then a permanent white habitation. The settled parts of the country formed a very small portion of its territory. In the interior were the small towns of San Antonio, Gonzales, Goliad, and a few others, dating from the time of the early Spanish colonization or the missions of the Franciscan friars.
