(TEXAS.) [Lundy, Benjamin.] The War in Texas; A Review of Facts and Circumstances, Showing the Contest is the Result of a Long Premeditated Crusade Against the Government, Set on Foot by Slaveholders, Land Speculators, &c. 56, [1] pages. 8vo, publisher's wrappers, vertical crease; foxing, early owner's ink notation on front wrapper and title ("An able state paper"). Philadelphia, 1836

  • Notes: first edition. "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; Sabin 95134; Streeter, Texas 1217.
