Episode 121: How The Battle Of The Alamo Almost Never Happened
One hundred ninety years ago this week, the Alamo is under siege. The Defenders believe help is on the way. They don’t yet know that battle will soon break out, most of the relief they’re promised won’t arrive in time, or that they are living the final days of their lives.
We reveal the road not taken: how military strategy, orders from leaders, and even the weather could have changed the course of history, and the Battle of the Alamo, as we know it. Featuring the Alamo's Senior Curator, Historian, and Lecturer Ernesto Rodriguez.
