Here is Where: Discovering America's Great Forgotten History by Andrew Carroll
4.0
A good history travelogue. Lots of glimpses of hidden and forgotten history.
Of particular interest to me was the fight over the Alamo. Not the original battle, but rather the struggle over it's preservation. It made me realize why my grandad was so keen on taking me there when we went through Texas.
This book is an interesting read that balances history and personal stories about its discovery very well.
