| 520 | |a Beginning with tribal wars among Native Americans before Europeans settled Texas and continuing through the Civil War, the soil of what would become the Lone Star State has frequently been stained by the blood of those contesting for control of its resources. In subsequent years and continuing to the present, its citizens have often taken up arms beyond its borders in pursuit of political values and national defense. Although historians have studied the role of the state and its people in war for well over a century, a wealth of topics remain that deserve greater attention: Tejanos in World War II, the common Texas soldier?s interaction with foreign enemies, the perception of Texas warriors throughout the world, the role of religion among Texans who fight or contemplate fighting, controversial paramilitary groups in Texas, the role and effects of Texans? ethnicity, culture, and gender during wartime, to name a few. In Texans at War, fourteen scholars provide new studies, perspectives, and historiographies to extend the understanding of this important field. One of the largest collections of original scholarship on this topic to date, Texans and War will stimulate useful conversation and research among historians, students, and interested general readers. In addition, the breadth and originality of its contributions provide a solid overview of emerging perspectives on the military history and historiography of Texas and the region.--amazon.com | ||

| 520 | 8 | |a The first half of the book explores topics ranging from the roles of ethnic and gender groups to concepts such as the quest for "renown." From a Native American perspective on war in the period of European discovery and settlement to a consideration of Tejano motivations for serving in the military from the Texas Revolution through the twentieth century; from women's roles in supporting military causes to African American's participation in various wars, the contributors bring recent scholarship to bear on issues that provide fresh ways of considering an array of themes | |
| 520 | 8 | |a The second half of the book provides a more chronological view of the military history of Texas with a focus on specific, lesser-known conflicts, ranging from those along the Texas-Louisiana border during the French and Indian War to the modern War on Terror. In this section also, the contributors make special efforts to include consideration of ethnic groups often overlooked in traditional military histories | |
