At SMU he earned his master's degree in 1924, and, with the exception of a summer at the National University of Mexico and eighteen months of graduate work at the University of Chicago, he remained a permanent fixture of the university's history department, of which he became chairman in 1947.he became the first managing editor of the Southwest Review. In 1932 he cowrote his first book with Lewis W. Newton, A Social and Political History of Texas. His book Mirabeau Bonaparte Lamar: Troubadour and Crusader (1934) won him praise from his peers and gave him incentive to continue his biographical studies of Texas historical figures. He became director of historical exhibits for the Texas Centennial Exposition in 1936 and the Pan American Exposition the following year.On August 4, 1940, Gambrell married Virginia Leddy (see GAMBRELL, VIRGINIA LEDDY) of Greenville, Texas. She had been his archivist in the Hall of State. With her help, he completed his doctorate at the University of Texas in 1946 and published Anson Jones: The Last President of Texas in 1948.

Collins Texas Book of the Year award and made the New York Times best-seller list.His last book, A Pictorial History of Texas (1960), a joint venture with his wife, received both the Award of Merit from the American Association for State and Local History and the Summerfield G.
