Making good use of historical sources he presents how history may well have been and puts flesh and blood on the men and women, both Texan and Mexican, who fought in that storied battle. His fast-paced narrative is so rousing and memorable that the reader will never forget the Alamo!" >-Paul Andrew Hutton, bestselling author of The Apache Wars "While most Alamo authors focus on the well-known participants, Clagett presents people on both sides of the battle who were, perhaps, more important to the outcome: ordinary soldiers, unheralded officers, women, and children. We learn of their loves, hatreds, hopes, and the glory (and dishonor) they earn as the battle begins and ends." >-Rod Miller, Spur Award-winning author ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ "A well-told, disquieting story." -Booklist on The Pursuit of Murieta "What an entertaining read!" -Historicalnovelsociety.org on West of Penance
