Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of losing his right leg to cannon fire in an early battle of the Mexican/Texan War of 1835-36, Thomas "Pegleg" Ward remained in the Texian military until he lost his right arm to cannon fire as well. He established himself as a remarkable political figure as he made significant contributions to the Texian cause through his administration of the General Land Office. "Pegleg" was able to persevere and amass large holdings of land and distinguish himself in service to his country and his state. Politically some despised him for his integrity, and his loyalty to Sam Houston. Others despised him because of his obstinence in doing things the way he thought best and having little flexibility to accommodate other's point of view. He was proud and he was stubborn, both good qualities for a Texan of that era.
