Forget the Alamo: The Rise and Fall of an American Myth by Chris Tomlinson, Jason Stanford, Bryan Burrough

informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

I've grown up in Texas, surrounded by the Alamo-centric history taught the San Antonio and I've never felt more uneducated and more disappointed in our state's education. I think this book is essential reading for anyone that lived through a seventh grade Texas History class because there is so much that we weren't taught. Between this book and the constant pandemic blunders of our state government, it's really hard to not be ashamed on Texas right now.
