The novel follows the lives of three people whose fates become bound to the now-fabled Texas fort: Ed McGowan, a proud & gifted naturalist whose life’s work is threatened by the war against Mexico; the resourceful, widowed innkeeper Mary Mott; & her 16-year-old son, Terrell. The story describes the battle from the perspective of the Mexican attackers as well as the American defenders. Filled with dramatic scenes & abounding in fictional & historical personalities -- among them James Bowie, David Crockett, William Travis, & General Santa Anna -- The Gates of the Alamo allows us to participate in an American legend.
