Overview

Only three weeks after U.S. soldier Jim Bowie wrote these words, Mexican president and general Antonio L?pez de Santa Anna and his six thousand troops arrived at the fort known as the Alamo to assert their control over the Texan colonists who had settled in Mexican territory. About 260 colonists had holed up to fight for independence from Mexico. Author Susan Provost Beller brings the conflict of these to groups to life with first-person accounts and stories that detail what conditions were like at the fort and what happened on March 6, when the Mexicans attacked. These words give us a better understanding of why ?Remember the Alamo? became the rallying cry for all U.S. citizens.
