Episode 144: The Summer Of 1835
The story goes, the Texas Revolution began with a single shot in October of 1835. And while that’s true, the seeds of revolution were being planted for many years before that fateful day in Gonzales.
We reveal the critical months of the Summer of 1835, what caused simmering tensions to boil, and how the diplomatic hopes at the start of summer heated up into a full-scale military mission. Featuring the Alamo's former curator Dr. Bruce Winders and Alamo Podcaster For A Day, 11-year-old Everly Garcia from San Antonio.
