T.R. Fehrenbach

Theodore Reed "T. R." Fehrenbach Jr. was an American historian, columnist, and the former head of the Texas Historical Commission (1987–1991). He graduated from Princeton University in 1947 with a degree in modern languages and wrote more than twenty books, including the bestseller Lone Star: A History of Texas and Texans and This Kind of War, about the Korean War. Senator John McCain called this book "perhaps the best book ever written on the Korean War". Secretary of Defense James Mattis said "There’s a reason I recommended T. R. Fehrenbach’s book ... that we all pull it out and read it one more time."
