ISBN: 9780890964873 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Once called the "Fighting Colonel" of the Texas frontier, Ranald S. Mackenzie in the brief years of his career through the 1870s and early 1880s secured that land for the surging wave of settlers who turned the wilderness into a place of cattle ranches, productive farms, and prosperous towns. In this classic account of the dashing cavalryman's campaigns, first published in limited numbers in 1965, eminent historian Ernest Wallace brought to life an era of the frontier that continues to intrigue readers.

The fierce bands of Comanche Indians, on the testimony of their contemporaries, both red and white, numbered some of the most splendid horsemen the world has ever produced.

The Howling of the Coyotes: Reconstruction Efforts to Divide Texas
ISBN: 9781623492496 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Ernest Wallace chronicles the little-known attempts by radical reconstructionists to divide the state, a move their critics derisively referred to as the "howling of the coyotes." He traces the interplay of the division issue with partisan politics and with other controversies in the reconstruction convention. His analysis gives not only new information about the almost successful division movement, but also a dramatic new explanation of the convention's delays in completing a constitution and thus of Texas' tardy readmission to the Union.

Kebra Nagast (The Book of the Glory of Kings)

The 'Kebra Nagast' (Glory of Kings) was written at least one thousand years ago, and takes its theme from much older sources, some going back to the first century AD.

It was a successful meeting of minds, and Maqeda proved the equal of Solomon the Wise in a series of long philosophical discussions. But the Hebrew...

Texas' Last Frontier: Fort Stockton and the Trans-Pecos, 1861-1895
ISBN: 9781585440719 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) For almost three hundred miles, the Pecos River cuts across far West Texas. It is an arid land, a land that in the last century offered danger and hardship to those who crossed it and those who settled it. Yet they came--army posts like Fort Stockton to challenge the Apaches' claim to the rugged land, settlers to supply the posts, cattlemen to eke out a living from the vast but sparse grazing ranges. They came and they stayed because the land held one overriding appeal: it was Texas' last frontier.
The newcomers--cattlemen and sheepmen, individuals and corporations--included sturdy,... For almost three hundred miles, the Pecos River cuts across far West Texas. It is an arid land, a land that in the last century offered danger and har...
