Sam Houston and the Alamo Avengers: The Texas Victory That Changed American History Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

The New York Times bestseller now in paperback with a fresh epilogue.

In March 1836, the Mexican army led by General Santa Anna massacred a lot more than 2 hundred Texians who had been trapped in the Alamo. After thirteen times of fighting, American legends Jim Bowie and Davey Crockett died there, and also other Americans who had transferred to Texas looking for a fresh start. It was a crushing blow to Texas’s battle for freedom.

But the tale doesn’t end there. The beat galvanized the Texian settlers, and under General Sam Houston’s command they rallied. Six weeks after the Alamo, Houston and his band of settlers defeated Santa Anna’s military within a surprising victory, winning the independence that so many had died.

Sam Houston and the Alamo Avengers recaptures this pivotal war that transformed America permanently, and sheds light on the tightrope all battle heroes walk between courage and computation. Because of Kilmeade’s storytelling, a fresh generation of readers will remember the Alamo-and recognize the lesser known heroes who snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.
