Stephen Hardin talked about the military strategy of the Texas revolution. He focused on Sam Houston and argued that his behavior is most explainable when seen in the light of his goal of adding Texas to the Union. Professor Hardin is the author of Texian Iliad: A Military History of the Texas Revolution. He showed slides during his presentation and then responded to questions from members of the audience
