NOTES
"The Battle for Texas begins with the brave defense of the Alamo in which every man is killed. The women of the Alamo, Susanna Dickinson and Caroline LaFont are spared. Luke Calhoun, who arrived too late to join the defenders of the Alamo, is held captive by the Mexicans until the end. It is then that he is freed by Santa Anna in order to lead the women to safety. Luke joins Sam Houston in the epic battle for Texas Independence on the plains of San Jacinto, a battle Caroline observes from a secure position. The ordeal she and Luke have faced has brought them together so that, as man and wife, they begin their future in a free Texas." -- Provided by publisher
