Summary:
"In his now-trademarkstyle, Brian Kilmeade brings alive one of the most pivotal moments in American
history
, this time telling the heart-stopping story of America's fight for
Texas
. While the story of the Alamo is familiar to most, few remember how Sam Houston led Texians after a crushing loss to a shocking victory that secured their freedom and paved the way for America's growth."--Jacket.
