Summary "For the Liberty of Texas" by Edward Stratemeyer is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of the Texas struggle for independence from Mexico, the narrative introduces us to the Radbury family, particularly two brothers, Dan and Ralph Radbury, who live on a frontier ranch during the tumultuous years of the 1830s. The book delves into themes of bravery, survival, and conflict as it chronicles the challenges faced by settlers in a land marked by danger, from both hostile residents and Indigenous tribes. The opening of the story presents the Radbury brothers at their cabin near the Guadalupe River, where they're engaged in a hunting trip. Ralph proudly displays his first deer, but the situation quickly turns tense as they suspect the presence of Comanche Indians nearby. After a confrontation with Hank Stiger, a half-breed character who attempts to steal Ralph's deer, the brothers find themselves on high alert for potential dangers. The narrative sets the stage for the impending conflict, revealing the family's resilient spirit while foreshadowing the greater battles they will face as tensions escalate towards a full-blown rebellion for Texas's liberty.
