Contents Description:

Who was Commodore Moore? Few people, even in Texas, can answer this question, and yet the fact is that Commodore Moore and his navy probably represented the difference between a Texas reconquered by Mexico in 1843 and a Texas admitted into the Union in 1846. Unlike most of his fellow Texans, Commodore Moore understood the importance of sea power and his decisive naval battles made final the independence of Texas from Mexico. - from the back cover
