Lone Star Navy : Texas, the Fight for the Gulf of Mexico, and the Shaping of the American West Paperback / softback
by Jonathan W. Jordan
Paperback / softback
Description
"Lone Star Navy" tells the story of a little fleet of wooden warships, bought on credit by an impoverished band of revolutionaries and sent to sea on a single mission: to win Texas's independence from Mexico.
In this thoroughly researched and highly entertaining account, Jonathan W.
Jordan recounts the improbable story of how the Texas navy helped the short-lived Republic of Texas break away from Mexico and change the course of history in the American West.
