A Social and Political History of Texas by Lewis W. Newton is a comprehensive account of the development of Texas from its early days as a Spanish colony to its current status as a major American state. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the state's early settlement, the rise of the cattle industry, the Mexican-American War, the Civil War, Reconstruction, the oil boom, and the modern era. The author examines the social and political forces that shaped Texas throughout its history, including the impact of slavery, the struggle for civil rights, the role of women in society, and the influence of various ethnic groups. He also explores the state's unique political culture, including the legacy of the Texas Rangers and the rise of conservative politics in the 20th century.Through a combination of primary sources and secondary research, Newton provides a nuanced and detailed account of Texas history that will be of interest to scholars, students, and general readers alike. The book is well-written and engaging, with a clear and accessible style that makes it easy to follow along with the complex events and ideas it covers. Overall, A Social and Political History of Texas is an excellent resource for anyone interested in understanding the rich and diverse history of this important American state.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
