An altar for their sons : the Alamo and the Texas Revolution in contemporary newspaper accounts

This is a collection of rare documentary materials, the great majority of them not seen or referenced since their dates of original publication. They provide much that is ""new"" here in terms of the history of the Alamo siege and battle, of the Texas Revolution in general, and of the lives of the people involved, not to mention the events that both preceded and followed that conflict.
