Edward Stiff’s “New History of Texas” is one of the best histories of pre-Civil War Texas. First published as ‘The Texan Emigrant’, this book became immensely popular throughout the 1840s. According to Howes, this book is

“One of the most objective accounts of Texas affairs issued in the days of the Republic, written largely from personal knowledge. Later editions included account of the war between Mexico and the United States”

 

Per Streeter:

“Here conventional accounts of the physical features of Texas and of its cities and towns are interspersed with gossipy comments on various named individuals and on life in Texas in general, making it quite an entertaining book.”

 

This incredibly valuable 1840 true first edition is complete with the highly desirable folding maps. In fact, this work, complete with maps, is known to have sold for $10,000 at auction within the last 3 years.
