"The Texas Forts Trail contains a brief history, memorable events, and notable figures of each fort. You will read about life on the frontier when Comanche raids were feared by all, the Butterfield Overland Mail stage route that stopped at three of the forts, famous soldiers like Robert E. Lee and William Tecumseh Sherman who visited the forts, the Warren Wagon Train Massacre, and what it was like to be a soldier on patrol in the mid-1800s."-- Bookjacket back cover.
