A Mexican army led by Santa Anna attacks a small fort called the Alamo. Disputes still rage over what exactly happened and why. In a combination of historic and cultural analysis, historians Randy Roberts and James S. Olson blend a narrative of the battle, told from both an Anglo and Mexican perspective. They draw from a wide range of sources, including documents from Mexican military archives and pages from the famous diary of Jose Enrique de la Pena. The events of the Alamo pose a few questions: Did Davy Crockett really die a hero, or did he surrender before a summary execution? And why have Americans built a shrine for an event that lasted just 90 minutes, and inflated it into one of the country's biggest tourist attractions? A full explanation of the San Antonio encounter requires a peeling back of many layers. Roberts and Olson retell the story of a great American myth, and show how and why it endures.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Free Press","offers":[{"title":"Line in the Sand | Randy W Roberts | Hardcover | 9780684835440 | Used: Like New | American History 1691767","offer_id":48432995565720,"sku":"1691767","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/811T3lwZShL.jpg?v=1773354603","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/line-in-the-sand","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
