Sam Houston’s RepublicIt’s the first of its kind: A Texas history curriculum that is not only Christian but fascinating…

Written like a novel, Sam Houston’s Republic focuses on people and ideas rather than names, dates, and places. Cringe at Santa Anna’s fanaticism. Hear the cries of those fleeing. Absorb the courage and convictions of Sam Houston as he refuses to take up the sword until a declaration of independence is written, placing the rule of law above force…and then give it to your kids!
