Texas and Her Fifty-Nine Flags (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781039151062)

Texans are fiercely proud of their "Lone Star" flag. It has flown from foxholes, been displayed at military bases around the world, and even been to space. Most Americans don't even know that the state has had a grand total of fifty-nine different flags over the course of its great history.

Texas and Her Fifty-Nine Flags explores the standards for a different approach to a history of Texas. Throughout each chapter, the author provides a story taken from history texts, research and anecdotes collected during his teaching and travels, which took fifteen years. This unique history of Texas will captivate the reader from the first Spanish flag through revolutions and pirates, to the "Bonnie Blue Flag" of the Civil War.
