Beskrivelse

More than a generation ago, a familiar joke circulated among those who had left their troubles behind when an insolvent debtor or a wayward soul moved on, they would chalk G.T.T. on their door, meaning gone to Texas. Davy Crockett, just before his fateful stand at The Alamo, famously remarked about his last congressional campaign I told the people of my district that if they re-elected me, I would serve them faithfully; if not, they could all go to h——, and I would go to Texas. Alas, he was defeated, and his journey took a different turn. Andrew Hales long-forgotten book is not focused on Davy Crockett but rather chronicles a whimsical adventure aboard a Pullman train to Texas, filled with colorful escapades and memorable characters. Special thanks to Beate and Eberhard Schneider of Germany and Katie Greenman for their contributions to the lullaby in Chapter 6, as well as Kazbec for the Italian song and lyrics featured in Chapter 12.
