Texas at the time of the Mexican War -- and Nancy, who found romance only in books until the siege of the Alamo and the death of her big brother wakened her to the vibrant history in the embattled strongholds of this frontier state fighting for its heritage of precious American freedom. Exceptionally fine handling of characters and family relationships, as well as stirring historical detail give this book value for libraries and schools. The author of Beckoning Star and Delects Ann has created a considerable audience for the Frank Paine family whose history is concluded with the establishment of a free Texas.
