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. 588 Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 610 10 United States.|bArmy|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85140642|y19th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 610 10 United States.|bArmy|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85140642|y19th century|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 |vBibliography.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001362 610 17 United States.|bArmy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 533532 648 7 19th century|2fast 648 7 1800-1899|2fast 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 History, Military.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1353231 651 0 Texas|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80129616 |xHistory, Military|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005872 651 0 Texas|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80129616 |xHistory, Military|y19th century|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005872|vBibliography.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001362 651 7 Texas.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1210336 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Bibliographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919895 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 Military history.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1411630 655 7 Bibliographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026048 776 08 |iPrint version:|aSmith, Thomas T., 1950-|tOld army in Texas|bSecond edition.|dAustin : Texas State Historical Association, [2020]|z9781625110602|w(DLC) 2020021371 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=3074530|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
