Forget the Alamo: The Rise and Fall of an American Myth [Large Print] by Burrough, Bryan, 1961- Thorndike Press Large Print 12/21 ISBN:  9781432892852 Requests:  0 Summary:  "Three noted Texan writers combine forces to tell the real story of the Alamo, dispelling the myths, exploring why they had their day for so long, and explaining why the ugly fight about its meaning is now coming to a head... In the past forty-some years, waves of revisionists have come at this topic, and at times have made real progress toward a more nuanced and inclusive story that doesn't alienate anyone. But we are not living in one of those times; the fight over the Alamo's meaning has become more pitched than ever in the past few years, even violent, as Texas's future begins to look more and more different from its past. It's the perfect time for a wise and generous-spirited book that shines the bright light of the truth into a place that's gotten awfully dark."--   Copy/Holding information No Item Information
