About this Item
xxi, 232 pages : illustrations, portrait, maps, plan ; 24 cm. ; wraps. Uncommon. Written anonymously in 1838-39 by a citizen of Ohio, it is the earliest known account of the first year of the Texas Republic. The author arrived at Galveston Island on March 22, 1837, before the city of Galveston was founded, and spent the next six months in the Republic. His inquiring mind and objective, acute observations of early Texas provide us a way of returning to the past, revisiting landmarks that have vanished forever. Seller Inventory # 001476

Store Description
This is no Half Price Books nor Strand Bookstore, rather one person selling books as a side hustle and a passion. When you deal with me, you deal with me, not an anonymous clerk. I presume sales to be final except in case of substantial condition discrepancy or lost and strayed shipments, and frown upon buyer's remorse.
Books will be wrapped securely in unused newspaper stock and shipped in bubble-padded mailing envelopes. Additional bubble-wrap may be included for large, heavy, or specially fragile items. After multiple instances of the US Post Awful losing books for me (it averaged about one per month) I have changed to UPS for US domestic shipments. Unfortunately, this also means I CANNOT ship to Post Office box addresses any longer (the delivery trucks won't fit into the little boxes) and I have to charge more S&H than I used.
I send international shipments via the broker Global Post, at International First Class rates. This will of necessity delay delivery at times.
