Focusing on the life of William Turner Sadler, this history of Texas reveals the experiences of a pivotal yet lesser-known figure in the state's development. Migrating from Georgia in 1835, Sadler played key roles in significant events, including the battle of San Jacinto and the Cherokee War. His personal tragedies, such as the loss of his family in the Edens-Madden Massacre, shaped his journey. A farmer, politician, and Civil War veteran, Sadler's legacy continues through his numerous descendants still residing in Texas today.
