The Gates of the Alamo - Stephen Harrigan, NEW PB

The Gates of the Alamo
by Stephen Harrigan
The Gates of the Alamo is an unforgettable re-creation of a time, a place, and a heroic conflict. Never before has the fall of the Alamo been portrayed with such immediacy. And for the first time the story is told not just from the perspective of the American defenders but from that of the Mexican attackers as well.

We follow Blas Montoya, a sergeant in an elite sharpshooter company, as he fights to keep his men alive not only in the inferno of battle but also during the long forced march north from Mexico proper to Texas. And through the eyes of the ambitious mapmaker Telesforo Villasenor, we witness the cold deliberations of General Santa Anna.

Filled with dramatic scenes, abounding in fictional and historical personalities - among them James Bowie, David Crockett, and William Travis. 580 pages.

Trade paperback 5½" x 8½" published by Penguin Books in 2000. Book is new.
