• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

What were the last few minutes of fighting like in the Alamo? Who was the first man killed? Did Davy Crockett surrender? Who was the last man to leave the Alamo alive? All serious questions that are addressed in the book and the novel "Almost A Hero." The novel is about the last man out alive. It describes the fighting in minute detail and brings in Susanna Dickinson, the last woman out alive. Susanna was taken back into the Alamo by Santa Anna to identify the bodies of the fallen hero's, Davy Crockett, Jim Bowie and William Barrett Travis. The bodies of the fallen defenders were then burned, and as such there are no graves for them. The Alamo church still stands today as a shrine to Texas Independence. In 1846, the Republic of Texas was trimmed to its current size and became the state of Texas in the United States of America.

Autorenporträt

I have been writing mystery and fiction books since 1982. I have never considered having any published until now. My career has been in writing technical documents for the defense industry. By profession I am a mechanical engineer, P.E. I have six grand children.. During the summer months, I spend a lot of time in the mountains of New Mexico. Watching wildlife and observing the ecology. i also enjoy riding my 4-wheeler. I built a cabin by myself, just above a stream filled with trout, perhaps i should say am building, I have been working on it for twenty years and it is still not finished, but it is livable, it has electricity, running water and a septic system. With that, I am happy to live there in the summer months and for a week or two in the winter, but I have found that I am not much of a "snow" person.
I do hope you read and enjoy my books as much as I enjoyed writing them! Thanks for visiting my page.
