  • Very Good, but Beware
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/02/09
    Many of the displays are quite impressive and the museum gives the grand sweep of Texas history. Beware that some "artifacts" are not authentic, but recreations for effect.

    One big negative to beware of is that the museum and many of its displays are rife with far-left ideological bias. They have a "display" on immigration ...

In addition to those things, there were a lot of mini theatres right next to some of the exhibits, and they showed a short, interesting documentary.
