No dust jacket. First Edition.The book attempts to explore the development of the Alamo myth itself and to suggest what that myth may reflect about the American character. This investigation has revealed much that is confusing and contradictory. The Alamo's defense certainly was heroic, striking reminiscent of the battle at Thermopylae, and has thus served well as a standard for subsequent American warriors, but this battle suggests a darker side to the American character as well.
