Condition : The book is in very good condition. There is a gift note glued to the front free endpaper. The pages are clean and free of rips, tears, and writing. They have tanned with age. The cover is also in very good condition. One small nick about 1/1 6" on the front cover. Minor wear on the corners.

Synopsis : "This book tells the story of Texas as an integral part of the story of America, a vital and essential chapter of the history of the United States.

But it is much more than this. The background of American, Mexican, and world history, against which the Texas drama was enacted, is presented in a manner that illuminates the whole story..."
