"Let the brave rally to the
standard", was Sam Houston's
call to Texians as they rallied to rise
against the tyranny of the times.
Of all the Americans who went west
in the 19th Century, none held a
stronger claim to singularity than the
pioneers who boldly planted their
roots in the soil of Texas. They were
the first Americans ever to settle the
immense land west of Missouri. They
were the only Americans ever to settle
in a land ruled by a large and
unfriendly power. And they created
the only American state ever to join
the union as a prosperous and
populous nation, after which they
proceeded to make it infinitely more
prosperous and populous. All this the
Texans accomplished with spectacular
flourish, in barely four decades, under
circumstances that would certainly
have defeated a less daring and
ambitious people.
Theirs was an unlikely sweep of
history, replete with Texas-sized
phenomena: frontiering on a colossal
scale, fantastic business deals, incredi
ble battles, larger than life heroes. The
Texans won a bitter war of
independence of 1836, two years
before the United States began to
make a systematic survey of the
Western wilderness. By 1860, the
state was home to more than 600,000
venturesome, maverick Texans.
"Texas Peacemakers" honors Texas
and the men who made it the greatest
"country" in the world.
