“A balanced, unromanticized account [of] America’s great epic.” —The New York Times Book Review
“Sweeping and specific. . . . [Brands] writes the story with clarity and vigor. . . . Clearly adds to our knowledge of an era when men rode to the sound of guns and honor was a comprehensible concept.” —The Washington Post Book World
“[Brands] offers both sides of the Texas story, striking perspectives from both the revolutionists and the Mexicans who opposed them. . . . Lone Star Nation combines depth, description and detail in a magnificent, fascinating book.” —The Miami Herald

“Rousing. . . . [Brands] is a master of the ground-view, narrative history.” —Dallas Morning News

“The most compelling analysis of the results of the war as well as the best articulated defense for the motives of [Stephen] Austin, Sam Houston and the other Texas patriots.” —The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“Extremely vivid and beautifully written. . . . Brands [is] a master of description.” —The News & Observer (Raleigh, NC)
