Mona D. Sizer

A Dynasty of Courage is a collection of stories of men, including Audie Murphy, who stayed when others ran, fought against incredible odds, and somewhere along the way became legends. Ranging in time from the eighteenth century to World War II, the tales found in this book explore every facet of bravery, from gutsy scalawags in the early days of Texas exploration to the distinguished Texas Rangers.

Mona Sizer Personalizes Texas History and makes it especially captivating. She develops the personalities of ordinary, and some famous, men who all performed extra-ordinary feats of courage, as she describes the events and circumstances that formed the History of Texas. Each chapter is dedicated to a brave man who made a real impact on the events of his time. She progresses from the 1700's in the Land of Tejas (Texas Indians) as part of the Spanish colony of Mexico to the involvement of Texans in World War II. The diversity of the heritage of the gallant men she accounts is impressive; French, English, Black, Irish, Mexican and German. This book is not only a lesson in courage and History, but also a pleasure to read.
