## Resource

March 5, 1836, Night is falling. Inside the Alamo, fewer than 200 men wait behind adobe walls. They're surrounded by thousands of enemy forces. What were they thinking? What did it sound like in those final hours? Andrew Minter is one of the most compelling tour guides I've ever met--a man who doesn't just recite history, he walks you into it. Stripping away the Hollywood veneer, we stand in front of of the famous church facade, talk about what visitors--and John Wayne fans--completely misunderstand. From the siege to the final assault on March 6, we follow the story from inside the walls--who Travis, Bowie and Crockett really were, how Santa Anna saw the battle, how nearly every US state was involved, and whether there was ever really any chance for survival. When the smoke finally clears, we see how "Remember the Alamo" became more than a slogan and why the 190-year-old fight still matters today--because history isn't just something that happens. It shapes who we are. Especially the real Alamo.
