Lust For Glory, An Epic Story of Early Texas and the Sacrifice that Defined a Nation
Abilene: State House Press, 2018. 1st edition. 361 pages. Softcover. FINE condition. SIGNED by Hardin.
This book explores the twenty-five years between 1821 and 1846, an eventful period for sure. Using short, episodic chapters, Hardin writes masterfully in this “reader-friendly” account of Texas history that includes Mexican Independence, Anglo settlement, the Texas Revolution, and the 10 years Texas was a stand-alone nation before joining the United States. Hardin brings the extraordinary figures of the period to life and makes it easy to understand why he is a respected Texas scholar and award-winning author.
