Overview
The great achievements and fascinating life of Jane Long, Mother of Texas, are celebrated in this captivating biography. Readers will learn how Jane, orphaned as a young child and widowed at an early age, raised three children on her own and opened and operated a successful boarding house in Brazoria, the main port of Texas. The biography details how Jane's hotel became the central hub of activity for many of the major figures in the Texas Revolution, including William Barret Travis and Sam Houston, and how Jane used her domestic skills to serve her country in a time when other doors were shut for women. With more in-depth coverage and a higher-level of vocabulary than its companion volume, this intriguing story of a rough-and-tumble woman of incredible strength of character and fortitude will engage and educate young readers.
