Description

For the first time, the real story of ""The Yellow Rose of Texas"" is told in full, revealing a host of new insights and perspectives on one of America's most popular stories.

For generations, the Yellow Rose of Texas has been one of America's most popular western myths, growing larger over time to eventually little resemble the truth of what really happened on decisive April 21, 1836, at the battle of San Jacinto, where a new Texas Republic won its independence.

The real Yellow Rose was an ordinary but also quite remarkable free black woman from the North, Emily D.

West. This is the first full-length biography of her-which explores the evolution of one of the most popular myths in American, Texas and western history.
