This work is part of the opening salvo of the celebration of the bi-centennial of the Texas War for Independence from Mexico (1835-36); a sweeping tale of the exploration, colonization and rebellion which led to the creation of the Republic of Texas in April of 1836. Much of the story is seen through the eyes of a man who was born to a prominent Lexington, Virginia family in 1802, which then relocated to Lexington, Kentucky in 1811. One of their sons would continue the great western migration and settle finally in the northern-most state of the Republic of Mexico in 1831. He would bring with him a mixed-race woman named Sarah, who he procured from her owner in New Orleans. Together they lived for about five years along the Lavaca River in Texas. In February of 1836, they would find themselves embroiled in the fight for independence from the despotic rule of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. They would both perish on March 6, 1836 in a battle known as, The Alamo. This is their story. The author is a twelfth-generation Texan. He is a cousin of the major player in this story, Patrick Henry Herndon.
