«Texas» is the historical novel by James A. Michener, published by Droemer Knaur in paperback (895 pages, in German).
The narrative spans four and a half centuries of Texas history, from the arrival of the Spanish conquistadors in 1527 to the contemporary era. Through complex characters, Michener combines the state's political and social development with the emotional tensions of its inhabitants: patriotism, growth, violence, and betrayal intertwine to explain how Texas was forged.
The work is the German translation of the original 1985 novel, published in 1988 in the Knaur collection as number 1685.
