Don't know if anyone has this or has read it, but a new paperback edition has been published by Texas A&M University Press:

This is an interesting book that rehabilitates the career of John Davis Bradburn and re-examines his role in the Tex Rev. The much-maligned Anahuac commander has the mantle of tyrant lifted off his reputation by the astute Margaret Swett Henson. Recommended reading.

Good summary Hiram. The late Margaret Henson was a great historian and one of those folks who was great to sit down and have a converstation with.

Good summary Hiram. The late Margaret Henson was a great historian and one of those folks who was great to sit down and have a converstation with. I'm sorry I never got to meet her, Kevin. I recall reading her material on Emily Morgan back during a lengthy discussion of that subject. Glad to see her Bradburn book has new life. |
