| Publisher Description: Children of all ages will enjoy this colorful, instructive book on Texas history. Told in simple language, the story emphasizes the drama and excitement of the state's history - from prehistoric times, when Texas was largely underwater and inhabited by strange creatures, to the modern age of space travel and computers. The text is amply illustrated by lively sketches and paintings that will make reading about history fun. |
