Publisher's Synopsis

In an engaging narrative format, Sleuthing the Alamo employs a particular archival "find" in each chapter to show how the meaning of the Texas Revolution, and especially the Alamo battle, cannot be understood without examining the construction of the histories and myths about the birth of the Texas Republic.
