From Nathan Hale, #1 New York Times bestselling author and Texas Bluebonnet Award Master List maker, comes the definitive graphic novel about the Alamo.




Hale relays the facts, politics, military actions, and prominent
personalities that defined the Texas Revolution in factual yet humorous
scenes that will capture the attention of reluctant readers and fans of
history alike.




In the early 1800s, Texas was a wild and dangerous land fought over by
the Mexican government, Native Americans, and settlers from the United
States. Beginning with the expeditions of the so-called "Land Pirates,"
through the doomed stand at the Alamo, and ending with the victory over
Santa Anna at the Battle of San Jacinto, the entire Texas saga is on
display. Leading the charge to settle this new frontier is Stephen F.
Austin, with a cast of dangerous and colorful characters, including Jim
Bowie, William Travis, David Crockett, and others.




Through his vivid depiction and additional maps, and biographies located
in the back of the book, Nathan Hale brings new insight for students,
teachers, and historians into one of the most iconic structures in the
United States.
