Book Description
Sit back, dear reader, and open your mind to a world you may have once dismissed with an utterance of "Who cares!?" whenever the word "trivia" was mentioned... This work is not a modest collection of trivial data filched from an Internet search, since information of this type is not altogether accurate. Nor does it lean on circumstances thought true for years, yet found unreliable under tight examination... Rather, the author has thoroughly researched each piece of trivia enclosed within these pages, sourcing many with dates, records, photos and period artwork for the most accurate of obtainable facts... Whether or not you respect that awesome word "tivia" after reading this little volume, wouldn't it be nice to take home a lot of extra money because you knew something someone else didn't?

As life goes on. We think. We think of our past, our present, and our future. Some are deep thoughts; others, not so much...

Defiance! a Saga of David Crockett and the Alamo
Author: Psy D Ph D James Charles Bouffard
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1257107399
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
"In 1835, David Crockett's political career crumbled and he left Tennessee in search of a new homestead in Texas. But signs of war with Mexico brought him to San Antonio de Bexar, where he died in a defiant determination to live up to his legend. This singular gesture outstripped everything his bureaucratic promoters did to extend his reputation for fearlessness and integrity, leaving the final and most decisive act of legend entirely his own." This work takes you from his ancestral beginnings to his birth and early adventures; to the Creek War; to his sadness and Congress - all the way to the Alamo and beyond... It also answers two compelling questions: When did "Davy" start calling himself David? And did he surrender at the Alamo?...Also learn: How David's first wife, Polly, died... Who suggested Travis and Bowie as co-commanders of the Alamo... How many defenders really died in the final assault. And much more... Illustrated with period paintings, maps and photographs.
