When brothers William and John Wright arrived in the United States from Ireland in 1850 and could find no other suitable employment, they joined the U.S. Army's Regiment of Mounted Rifles on the Texas frontier. Their description of their experiences is a view of Texas in the 1850s, when personal accounts were rare, and has an immediacy lacking in many memoirs. This softcover facsimile of the Book Club of Texas's 1995 fine limited edition makes this classic account available to a broad audience for the first time since 1857. It is illustrated with wood engravings form William H. Emory's Report of the United States and Mexican Boundary Survey.
