Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from With Sam Houston in Texas: A Boy Volunteer in the Texas Struggles for Independence, When in the Years 1835-1836 the Texas Colonist Threw Off the Unjust Rule of Mexico, and by Heroic Deeds Established, Under the Guidance of the Bluff Sam Houston, Their Own Free Republic Which to-Day
Sam houston should justly be regarded as a great American. He laid his course and steered by it utterly regardless of the Opposition. Strong characters are known as much by the enemies that they make as by the friends that they retain. When they launch into a course that they deem is right, they do not depend upon fair winds. They go ahead, if they have real faith. Threats, ridicule and dangers do not daunt them. Sometimes they may pause, to renew their courage; but they proceed again on the same line.
