Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sam Houston and His Republic Sam Houston´s Life and Achievements constitute an important and inseparable portion of the history of the United States. Their significance is only just beginning to be understood. The object of this work is not limited to a biography of General Houston, but it will endeavor to explain the real meaning and influence of his acts and show how far they tended to mould the fortunes of this nation; and why future historians will be obliged to regard him among the greatest of the post-revolutionary statesmen of our Republic. If I assign him so high a place in our annals, I think I can clearly make out the case to the satisfaction of every candid reader. He has been so long dead that none but a few men, now passed the meridian of life, knew him, while fewer still of the present generation are familiar with anything but his name. Most of the young have only heard of him as an adventurer in the far-off wilds of Texas, who had something to do with frontier life in the Southwest, and who won a great battle over the Mexicans, and was called the Conqueror of Santa Anna, and the Hero of San Jacinto.
