In the decades preceding the Civil War, few figures in the United
States were as influential or as controversial as Sam Houston. In
Sam Houston, James L. Haley explores Houston's momentous career and
the complex man behind it. Haley's fifteen years of research and
writing have produced possibly the most complete, most personal,
and most readable Sam Houston biography ever written. Drawn from
personal papers never before available as well as the papers of
others in Houston's circle, this biography will delight anyone
intrigued by Sam Houston, Texas history, Civil War history, or
America's tradition of rugged individualism.
