Description
Book SynopsisA sweeping, action-packed saga of the legendary last stand at the Alamo, by the author of the bestselling
A Terrible Glory.
Trade ReviewAn authoritative, moving retelling of an enduring episode of sacrifice and courage ...Donovan's thoroughly researched and agreeably told story focuses on the 13-day standoff, but he also supplies crucial context...Yes, the Alamo is remembered, but not without controversy. What really happened inside those battered walls? Did Travis really draw a line in the sand, asking all who would stand with him to step across it? Without breaking the flow of his compelling story, Donovan reliably separates fact from legend, persuasively assessing the evidence and artfully setting the scene. -- Kirkus Reviews * Kirkus Reviews *
