5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderfully entertaining!,
By cdaniel@austin.rr.com (The Lone Star State) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Texas Tales Your Teacher Never Told You (Paperback)
Outstanding book of history, lore and tales woven into a modern view of how we embelish or change history to make the story bigger than is was. Excellent book for any Texan (by birth, choice or desire). Hard to put down and a joy to read!
5.0 out of 5 stars
Quintessentially Texan,
This review is from: Texas Tales Your Teacher Never Told You (Paperback)
I discovered this book in college and have reread it several times. Now I'm reading selections to my own children. Although I'm a born and bred Texan, Mr. Eckhardt tells history I had never heard--like the Green Flag Revolution. He's a great story teller who neither white washes history nor paints our ancestors as evil villains. Far more entertaining that most histories, you feel as though you're on Mr. Eckhardt's front porch listening to him spin yarns.
