Interview with Jordan Cash, Adding the Lone Star

Year(s) Discussed: 1790-1863

In this episode, I am joined by historian Jordan Cash to discuss two pivotal figures in the push for Texas annexation: Sam Houston and John Tyler. Each dealt with unique challenges in their respective roles as president to get the Americans and Texians to agree to the Lone Star Republic becoming the 28th state of the Union.
