About this listen

If you want to discover the captivating history of Texas, then keep reading...

Texas is one of the most recognizable states in the United States of America (it is the second-largest, behind Alaska), and it also has a reputation for being unlike any other. This reputation is well-deserved, in part because of the state’s long and often contentious history.

That history has fascinated many people not only in this nation but around the world for centuries. From the heyday of the Wild West and the state’s oil boom to the storied Texas Rangers and the construction of one of NASA’s primary facilities, it seems nearly impossible to fully explore everything in the state’s rich past.

In History of Texas: A Captivating Guide to Texas History, Starting from the Arrival of the Spanish Conquistadors in North America through the Texas Revolution to the Present, you will discover topics such as

  • Before Columbus
  • Early Colonizers - Spain and France
  • Spanish Settlers Claim the Region
  • Americans Settle
  • Rising Tensions between Mexico and the Settlements
  • The Fight for Texas Independence Begins
  • “Remember the Alamo” and Other Major Battles
  • Annexation to the US and the Mexican-American War
  • Role in the Civil War
  • Reconstruction
  • Texas Rangers - One of the Most Illustrious Law Enforcement Agencies
  • Texas Tea - The Texas Oil Boom
  • The Space Race
  • Assassination of JFK
  • Texas Today
  • And much, much more!

So if you want to learn more about the history of Texas, buy this audiobook now!

Ok, Texas History is better than this.

Ok. Texas History is much more rich and positive than portrayed in this book. The reader/author was a little biased/anti Texan. Didn't help that the narrator was British.
