Description
Although best known as the liberator of Texas and the man who defeated the Mexican general Santa Anna at the pivotal battle of San Jacinto in Texas, Houston was originally a protégé of Andrew Jackson and had a long career in politics. With great insight into Houston's failures and successes in both public life, historian John Hoyt Williams reveals an ambitious yet troubled man who, more than any other individual, was responsible for Texas's entry into the United States.
