Celebrating the TEXAS Declaration of Independence

 1974.  The Story of TEXAS.  A History Picture Book by Betsy Warren and Martha Ingerson.  RanchGate,  Austin, Texas.  I found this book about 4 months ago at Half-Price Books.


On March 02, 1836, a Declaration of Independence was issued from Washington-on-the-Brazos where the delegates were meeting in a blacksmith's shop.  I see SAM HOUSTON on his horse everytime I go to Hermann Park.  To be continued on March 06 . . . a day to remember!
