About this audiobook
The Texans have defeated Santa Anna at San Jacinto and now start the process of establishing an identify for themselves. First as a Republic and then as a new state and part of the United States.
This was a chaotic time in Texas history. There was infighting among the leaders, violent and bloody clashes with the native peoples, distrust of the Mexican population, and a lust for power among the new Anglo immigrants. This book covers the policies of one of the great Texas political leaders Sam Houston and one of the most power-hungry leaders in Texas history Mirabeau B. Lamar.
Topics include a look at the Comanche, Apache, Kiowa, and Cherokee peoples, how they lived and how they were affected by this new country. I also take a preliminary look at a group who is, depending on your point of view, either famous heroes or infamous villains, Los Diablos Tejanos, AKA, the Texas Rangers. I talk about how Texas was formed into an actual independent nation, and I look at exactly how Texas finally ended up being annexed by the United States not as a territory but rather as a state.
