This book is suitable for ages 4 to 8 years. Sam Houston comes alive in this fascinating biography for young readers. Houston's endeavours and accomplishments include becoming a lawyer, congressman, governor, President of the Republic of Texas, and army general. His defeat of Santa Anna's army at San Jacinto in 1836 secured the independence of Texas and this resource helps his legend live on in Texas history and lore.
