second edition, revised and enlarged, octavo, 64 pp., printed in double columns, text map, original printed wrappers, removed from bound volume, spot of glue residue along spine edge, some light dust soiling, else a very good copy. "Copies with the wrappers are the exception. This contains much on the empresario grants, one of which Lundy himself endeavored to secure. While entirely innocent of the slightest impartiality, Lundy's dialectics are fortified with careful personal observations gleaned from three trips to Texas in 1832, 1833, and 1834." - Eberstadt 162:503. "First to ascribe this war to a slaveholding conspiracy." - Howes L-569. Raines p. 141; Sabin 95134; Streeter, Texas, 1217a
