βRemember the Alamo!β That rallying cry has gone down in Texas history. But what, exactly, should we remember? Who were the ragtag group of adventurers behind the famous slogan, and how did they end up barricaded in a fort against a Mexican army? Who survived, who died, and how?
In the early 1800s, Native Americans, the Mexican government, and settlers from other areas of the United States were fighting over the territory that would become the Lone Star state. Here, vivid illustrationsβrendered in black, white, and shades of gray, with tinges of yellowβand witty text tell the story, from Texasβs near wilderness beginnings to the Battle of the Alamo and General Sam Houstonβs ultimate victory over General Antonio LΓ³pez de Santa Anna at the Battle of San Jacinto.
Let βNathan Haleβ tell the tale of the Texas fight for independence from the Mexican government. It features the exploits of the notorious Jim Bowie, as well as Stephen Austin, Davy Crockett, and other βall-starβ settlers and soldiers who made the wild frontier of Texas their homeβuntil the bitter end.
