Remember Texas: What the Law Decided follows Eli as he is pulled into the era of railroads, cattle drives, and courtroom rulings, where he discovers that the most dangerous monster in Texas history isn't a person-but the law itself. As fences rise and open land disappears, Eli watches how legal decisions, test answers, and official summaries quietly erase families, silence conflict, and declare injustice "settled." When he tries to fight back, the monster adapts, feeding on certainty, order, and anything labeled correct. Dark, unsettling, and grounded in real Texas history, this novel shows how the law can shape memory, how wrong answers can become acts of resistance, and how history changes not with violence-but with decisions written in ink.
