Bigfoot Wallace

Bigfoot Wallace was a famous Texas Ranger who took part in many of the military conflicts of the Republic of Texas and the United States in the 1840s, including the Mexican-American War. Standing six feet tall and weighing in at roughly 240 pounds, his physique made him an intimidating man, and his unusually large feet won him the nickname "Big Foot."
Jo Harper has written extensively about Texas history and the legends that made it and provides this historical fiction for the younger reader.
