Andrew Jackson "Jack" Sowell (1848-1921) came from a family of warriors. John Newton Sowell, his grandfather, who fought in the War of 1812, came to Texas in 1829 and was one of the founders of Gonzales, Texas. Jack's father, Asa J. L. Sowell, fought in the Mexican and Civil Wars, and served as a Texas Ranger. Andrew Jackson Sowell (1815-1883), Jack's uncle, fought in the Texas War of Independence, the Mexican War, and the Civil War and served as a Texas Rangers. As a young and inexperienced Texas Ranger, Jack Sowell fought many battles against the Kiowa and Comanche in northwest Texas during the Wichita campaign of 1870-1871. By 1871, he was already writing his first book, Rangers and Pioneers of Texas (1884). Rangers and Pioneers of Texas tells the stories of the settlers who experienced violent, and often lethal, clashes with American Indians. Sowell was not a pedestrian author: every story is based on his experience as a ranger or the oral accounts of people he interviewed. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
