Book Reviews of Inside The Alamo
Book Review: HISTORY COMES ALIVE
Summary: 5 Stars
The Washington Post was right in saying that no one does non-fiction better than Jim Murphy. The story of the Alamo is one that I passed over in history books. I felt this was an appauling gap. Jim Murphy's book is fascinating and riveting -- as well as beautiful.
We have made this a family project to read this extraordinary story. It's a lesson in the making of myth and legend as well as history. An important story that all Americans should share.
With a new PG-13 Disney distributed feature film on The Alamo coming out this winter, the Alamo will be on the lips of kids and parents everywhere. Why not read the definitive presentation. It's riveting!
