5.0 out of 5 stars Remember the Alamo!, June 26, 2004
The Lone Star state is loaded with colorful characters and scores of historic events: The Alamo, Sam Houston, the JFK assassination, oil barons, cattle hustlers and the Astrodome are all just parts of its rich heritage.

The "Portrait of America" series is a wonderful introduction for pre-teens to the 50 states and to the places and events that shaped the history of the United States. This "Texas" installment is particularly good. The book is broken down into sections like "History", "Culture", "Economy" etc., and each section is thoughtfully written and edited.

This book, as well as the entire "Portrait of America" series, will prove to be a valuable teaching tool to all primary school educators.
