Of all the states of the union, few have a history as big or bold as that of Texas. From the heroic battle of the Alamo, where brave frontiersmen fight for independence, to the rise of the Texas Rangers, where fearless volunteers defend their home against outlaws and enemies, the people of Texas are a force to be reckoned with.
