The Alamo (Texas Heroes)

The Lone Star Legends

by Robert E. Hollmann

The Alamo was where men became heroes and heroes became legends. Two students, Nancy and Jimmie, will travel with Lady Texas to witness the birth of the shrine of Texas liberty. Nancy and Jimmie, witness history as it's made, from Colonel William Travis bold cannonade in answer to Santa Anna's demand for surrender to Juan Seguin's valiant ride through enemy lines to bring reinforcements to the hopelessly outnumbered garrison. They watch as Davy Crockett and John McGregor battle with fiddle and bagpipe to raise the spirits of the tired garrison. With the final end closing in, they cross the line with the men who chose to die so that Texas can be free.
