PLEA HEL Question :
Why was Anson Jones known as the "architect of annexation?"

Jones and others felt that Texas gaining recognition from European states was important, and began to set up trade relations with them, to make annexation of Texas more attractive to the United States, or failing that, to give Texas the strength to remain independent.
