"A valuable addition to the historiography of the Texas
Revolution." -- The Chronicles of Oklahoma--The Chronicles of
Oklahoma (11/29/2016)
"The essays contained in Contested Empire effectively place the
Texas Revolution into the broader contexts of early American and
Mexican histories. The result is a fascinating, novel approach that
adds yet another layer of depth to the understanding of this
important conflict. As such, this volume will likely appeal to a
broader audience of American and Mexican historians than is usually
reached by works of Texana"--The Journal of Southern History
-- (01/25/2017)
"These essays, taken together, deliver a fresh assessment of the
events of 1835-36"--Great Plains Quarterly
--Great Plains Quarterly
"Those who attended the Walter Prescott Webb Lectures at the
University of Texas at Arlington in 2013 were treated to a genuine
intellectual feast, and those who read the revised and polished
versions of those lectures in Contested Empire will reap an even
richer reward. Through their varied transnational perspectives,
these innovative scholars from three nations (or four, if one
counts Texas) bring new meaning, resonance, and indeed brilliance
to the historiography of the Texas Revolution."--James E. Crisp--
