Treasure In Texas — Bob Schaller

"It's almost like Texas is another country all to itself."

Ashley and Adam Arlington sense the fiercely independent mindset of Texas as they explore the state with their parents. Intrigued by the brave heroes of Texas's past, the brother and sister team visit the Alamo and dive into its stories.

Hoping to pick up a piece of Texas history, Adam buys a frayed leather holster from an elderly Mexican at a flea market. When he finds a crumbled, yellow piece of a letter sewn into the holster, he and Ashley use their knack for unraveling mysteries to find out the letter's meaning.

Walking in the footsteps of Sam Houston, James Bowie, and other famous Texans, the Arlingtons try to piece together the missing parts of the letter with the help of the new friends they meet along the way. Could the holster be an actual artifact from the Alamo? Ashley and Adam are hot on the trail in this exciting story of history come to life.
