Excerpt from Legends of Texas Finally, let it not be thought that this volume will conclude the collection and publication of Texas legends. I make an appeal at once personal and ofi'icial: it is for more legends, new or variant, to add to the ripening second volume that I trust may come forth at no very remote date.

Excerpt from Under Six Flags, the Story of Texas But the history of Texas is far more than a romantic legend. It is a record of bold conceptions and bolder deeds the story of the discoverer penetrating unknown wildernesses; of the pioneer matching his strength against the savage of the colo nist struggling for his freedom and his rights. It is the chronicle of the birth of a people; the history of the rise and progress of a great State. I have tried in these simple readings so to arrange the salient points of a drama of two centuries as to present a consistent whole. And I shall be happy if I shall succeed in awakening in the reader somewhat of the interest in Texas history which has inspired this work.

Excerpt from The Legend of Lovers' Leap and an Historical Sketch of Waco, Texas With the unerring instinct of the savage the Wacos had another and greater reason for their choice of an abiding place. The lay of the land is such that no cyclone, no death-dealing storm ever approached them. We have had zero weather to the' north of us, cyclones to the west of us, hail storms on the east of us, and cloudbursts on the south of us, but we still cherish the Big Spring in the midst of us and bear a charmed life.

Excerpt from The Texan: A Tale of Texas Let's go up South Gabriel, and if we don't start a cat before we get to Bear Hollow we're almost sure to start that big old cat which runs over towards Nelson's pasture, and goes in one of the caves there. It has beat us to those caves two or three times now, and I'm itching to catch it and if Old Lead and Old Hunter strike its trail hot to-night they'll pick it up sure. I guess Roy and Will will want. To go with us, so you phone Will and I'll phone Roy, and we will start from my house at sundown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from For the Liberty of Texas For the Liberty of Texas is a tale complete in itself, but it forms the first of a line of three volumes to be known under the general title of the Mexican War Series. Primarily the struggle of the Texans for freedom did not form a part of our war with Mexico, yet this struggle led up directly to the greater war to follow, and it is probably a fact that, had the people of Texas not at first accomplished their freedom, there would have been no war between the two larger republics.
