A Primary Source Investigation of the Alamo (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9781499435078)

The rallying cry "Remember the Alamo" is famous, but how much does the average person actually know about the Texas mission and the 1836 battle that took place there? This volume traces the Alamo's history, from the Native American peoples who lived in the area when the mission was first built through the continuing efforts to preserve the historic site. Particular attention is paid to the Battle of the Alamo and how the bravery of its defenders inspired Texans during the Texas War of Independence. A timeline, primary resource transcriptions, and a wealth of primary-source images enhance the educational experience.
