For those interested in Texas history while in Montgomery, be sure to visit the N.H.Davis Pioneer Complex & Museum which displays artifacts and memorabilia from the era when Texas was an independent republic. The museum is housed in a historical structure originally owned by a lawyer, who built it in 1851 using logs received as payment for legal services. Visitors can explore period furnishings, a replica of the original Lone Star Flag sketch, and the Republic of Texas seal, both adopted in 1839. The complex also features informative plaques that detail the lives of Native settlements in the area.

You can tour the small apartment where she lived and worked, see exhibits about the book’s history, and learn more about its cultural impact.
