| Summary | "Remember the Alamo!" by T. R. Fehrenbach is a historical account written in the early 1960s. The book explores the events surrounding the legendary Battle of the Alamo, focusing on the pivotal moments and characters involved in the conflict between Texan forces and the Mexican army during the Texas Revolution. It delves into themes of valor, sacrifice, and the complexities of freedom and national identity. The narrative centers on key figures such as Lieutenant Colonel William Barrett Travis, who is determined to defend the Alamo against overwhelming odds, and John Ord, a mysterious observer with knowledge of the future.
