Title: Texas by Dana Fuller Ross ISBN: 0-553-13980-0 Publisher: Bantam Doubleday Dell Format: Paperback |
Average Customer Rating: 4.67 (3 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: I have to admit att WW's get 5 stars from me...
Comment: This is Book #5 of the Wagon's West Series and just as good as the previous ones.
This one deals with the war between Texas and Mexico as well as how Texas becomes a state.
A lot of our favorite characters are back and in this one Danny Taylor and Chet Harris are not only forced to make choices that will affect their lives but they also grow up rather quickly. The Blake's as well as Ginny are again in this one.
Rating: 4
Summary: Not bad, but not the best of the WW series
Comment: Maybe it's because it's the first non-Oregon Trail book in the series, but Texas just does not have the "oomph" of most of the other books. The major characters of the series so far take a backseat to lesser characters in this book, breaking away much of the familiarity with the series. It is still a good book, especially if you want a novel set during the Mexican-American war. However, don't lose any sleep if you are trying to read the entire series and can't find this one in your library.
Rating: 5
Summary: Continuance of Western Heritage
Comment: I am the proud owner of the entire Wagons West Series (all 24 novels). I began reading them in high school some 19 years ago. I have just recently begun re-reading the series and it's like visiting old friends. Texas, picks up two years after the settling of Oregon and we find the United States in the process of annexing Texas into the Union. Soon old characters like Whip Holt and Lee Blake are back in the saddle doing what they do best, helping our country expand, with selfless dedication. We are introduced to new friends who display the same attributes of the earlier settlers in the Oregon series. Overall, the book is quite enjoyable, and it is almost imposssible to put down. The reader is transported to the old West, and can develop a sense of pride and understanding for those brave men and women who were the trailblazers of our American history.
