Publisher's Synopsis
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 un broken wilderness, where the Indians and the wild animals roamed as freely as they did when Colum bus discovered America. A few hunters and trap pers, little more civilized than the savages them selves, and now and then an American or a Mexican drover, who chased and captured for the Louisiana and the San 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 prai rie and forest and mountain and valley there was not then a permanent white habitation.
