In 1836, west of the Mississippi was considered the Wild West and the Texas frontier was viewed as hell on earth. Crushed from the outside by Mexican armadas and attacked from within by ferocious Comanche tribesāno one was safe.
This was a time of bravery, a time to die for what you believed in and a time to stand tall against the cruel rule of the Mexican General Santa Anna (Martinez).
The heroic General Sam Houston (Paxton), the rag tag Rangers and the legendary āYellow Rose of Texasā lead this story to win against insurmountable odds. At the end, the Texas flags stood tall and victorious, claiming a piece of history for all eternity.
Texas Rising begins on Tuesday 5th January 2016 at 10pm on HISTORY.
