The book is the story of Duval's adventures during the Goliad Massacre and his escape from capture and adventures during the Texas revolution. "This is the most literate of all 19th century Texas memoirs. It is authentic history, with only a little exaggeration thrown in here and there. Of all personal accounts of old-time Texas, his book is perhaps the best written and most interesting. " – Jenkins. A classic account of life in Texas by "the first Texas man of letters." - J.
