Col. Crockett's Exploits and Adventures in Texas:

1845 Davy Crockett TEXAS Battle of the Alamo INDIANS Mexico Creek War America 2v

"I know, that obscure as I am, my name is making a considerable deal of fuss in the world."

― Davy Crockett

Davy Crockett has long been one of the most iconic American folk heroes. While his legend has grown immensely since his military and political adventures, he did make an impact on the shape of the United States in the 19th-century.

In 1834, prior to the Texas Revolution, Crockett began writing his autobiography, now known as 'Narrative of the Life of David Crockett'. This work provides a full and complete discourse of his journey through Tennessee all the way to Texas into San Antonio. It also gives insight to the military and political engagements of Crockett but focuses heavily on his wars with Native Americans and Mexicans, particularly the Creek War, Texas War, and the Battle of the Alamo.

Crockett's 'Narrative' was published throughout the 19th-century including this 1845 two-volume edition. This particular issue was divided into two distinct books; however, it is supplemented with added material including notes on the Battle of the Alamo and the eventual death of Crockett.
