Edmondson's original book has been celebrated for over twenty years for its comprehensive approach to Alamo scholarship and for presenting the famous battle in the context of American history. This second edition of The Alamo Story includes new information about the battle and those involved, including expanded stories on the roles of minorities, and some new illustrations by noted artist Mark Lemon. It also features a new chapter on Benjamin Rush Milam's assault on San Antonio with three hundred Texians--known as Milam's 300--and an epilogue on the present-day battle over the physical Alamo compound, as historic preservationists battle political and popular opinions in San Antonio.
