Infos

Written in a narrative style, this comprehensive yet accessible survey of Texas history–from early times to the present–offers a balanced, scholarly presentation of all time periods and topics. From the beginning sections on geography and prehistoric people, to the concluding discussions on the start of the twenty-first century, this text successfully considers each era equally in terms of space and emphasis.
