Our mission is to preserve and promote Texas and its rich history

We are Texas History. This is our mission, to preserve and promote Texas and its rich history. Since 1986, we have traveled more than 750,000 miles across Texas, filming its wonderful heritage, diverse peoples, cultures and magnificent scenic grandeur. From the Big Thicket to the Big Bend, we have Texas covered. Our documentaries have been featured on The History Channel, PBS, Arts & Entertainment, The Discovery Channel and Lifetime.

Our Store Page features a wide variety of fascinating documentaries about Texas and its history. You can click on each title for full information about the documentary and even view a clip from the program.

Our History Page changes often and features history from across the Lone Star State, complete with text, pictures, and video clips. Make sure and visit us often to learn more about our state’s captivating history.
