In searching for today's happenings (in 1836), I found:

A great resouce!
San Antonio was taken by Santa Anna a few days ago. The Alamo is under seige. Ill fated Fannin in Goliad has received a plea for aid.
For months, I have been averaging a few pages per night of "Three Roads to the Alamo". HIGHLY recommended.

I'm tempted to describe it as a recounting of the pre-Alamo lives of Bowie, Crockett, and Travis. But, of course, they had no lives after the fall of the Alamo.
Consider observing Independence Day, then San Jacinto Day, and honoring those who gave us Texas.
