I have started a new book to read. So far it is good but the reading has been a bit slow. It is titled, LONE STAR RISING. The Revolutionary Birth of the Texas Republic. William C. Davis is the author. I bought it at Barnes & Noble. I am in the chapter three. It is obviously about the rebirth of Texas as a State although I am only in the stages before our state became to be. I am now at the place of where Stephen F. Austin comes into the picture. It is interesting and as I read it I become more immersed in the history. At first I was having some problems getting into the history because I was trying to remember all the facts but now I am just reading it as a story.
I have read more books this summer than before. Well, at least the Secret Life of Bees and there were a few others that my neighbor has given me. I finished the book about Thomas Jefferson, Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton. It was good too.
