520    "A classic work in Texas military, The Old Army in Texas 
       is now available in paperback with a new foreword by 
       Robert Wooster. U.S. Army officer and historian Thomas 
       "Ty" Smith presents a comprehensive and authoritative 
       single-source reference for the activities of the regular 
       army in the Lone Star State during the nineteenth century.
       Beginning with a series of maps that sketch the evolution 
       of fort locations on the frontier, Smith furnishes an 
       overview with his introductory essay. The second part of 
       this guide lists the departmental commanders, the location
       of the military headquarters, and the changes in the 
       administrative organization and military titles for Texas.
       Part III provides a dictionary of 223 posts, forts, and 
       camps in the state. The fourth part gives a year by year 
       snapshot of total army strength in the state, the 
       regiments assigned, and the garrisons and commanders of 
       each major fort and camp. Supplying the only such synopsis
       of its kind, the guide's Part V offers a chronological 
       description of 224 U.S. Army combat actions in the Indian 
       Wars with vivid details of each engagement. The 900 
       entries in the selected bibliography of Part VI are 
       divided topically into sections on biographical sources 
       and regimental histories, histories of forts, garrison 
       life, civil-military relations, the Mexican War, and 
       frontier operations. The Old Army in Texas is an 
       indispensable reference and research tool for students, 
       scholars, and military history aficionados. It will be of 
       great value to those interested in Texas history, 
       especially military history and local and regional 
       studies. This superb reference work is illustrated with a 
       number of maps and rare photographs of the U.S. Army in 
       nineteenth century Texas"--|cProvided by publisher.
