The year is 1835. Young Ned Fulton arrives in Texas with little more than his name and his nerve, drawn into a territory simmering toward revolt. As Mexican General Santa Anna tightens his grip on the region, Ned finds himself caught between loyalists and rebels, between the comfortable world he left behind and the violent birth of a new republic. He rides with the first volunteers who answer the call to arms, learns to handle a rifle in the shadow of the Alamo, and discovers what it costs to stand on the side of freedom when the odds are everything against you. Altsheler weaves meticulous historical detail with breathless adventure, painting the Texas Revolution not as distant history but as the desperate, personal choice it was for the young men who chose to fight. This is the story of how a boy becomes a man in the crucible of revolution, where every sunrise could be his last and every victory might be the one that costs everything.
