SynopsisAt four o'clock one April afternoon in 1836, 934 men, underfed, caked with mud and dressed in rags, began a slow walk through knee-high grass. A half hour later they crested a low hill. What they did in the next eighteen minutes made our world possible. These were the Soldiers of San Jacinto. Most historians will tell you that the Battle of San Jacinto was fought by newcomers from the United States who flooded across the border in search of land and glory when they heard a fight was brewing. And they are wrong. Also includes the most concise account of the the battle ever published, The Battle of San Jacinto in 900 Words, complete with maps showing how the action evolved over those eighteen minutes., This work sheds new light on the Battle of San Jacinto, correcting long-standing historical errors. In 1922, McDonald compiled 877 biographical entries for the most concise account of the battle ever published.
