Synopsis:
The author describes his experiences as a blacksmith, tobacco smuggler, soldier, Texas Ranger, and postmaster in Texas
From the Back Cover: Noah Smithwick was an old man, blind and near his ninetieth year, when his daughter recorded these words. He had stayed on in 'paradise'--Texas--from 1827 to 1861, when his opposition to secession took him to California. The Evolution of a State is his story of these 'old Texas days.'
