Book of Texas History is like driving the roads of Texas and
finding an unfamiliar historical marker, with one difference: Instead of
what happened at that place, you can read about what happened on that date.
Even a dedicated historian is likely to find something surprising, amusing,
sobering, thought-provoking, or just plain odd.
Triumphs,
tragedies, and absurdities; calamities and miracles; natural and man-made
disasters; and Texas's notorious weather are all part of the pageant of a
state that just seems naturally to breed colorful people and
bigger-than-life events.
