Description
The forts of Texas stand like silent sentinels. Their legends and stories are ghostly reminders of a past steeped in history. Tales of Indians wrapped in white buffalo robes and a ghostly lady delivering white roses to an officer's desk are woven with historical facts, placing the reader in the midst of the action. Photographs send the reader back in time as haunted souls of long lost legends fill the pages.
