Battle Digest: The Alamo

Battle Digest: The Alamo

Get facts, maps, historical significance, strategies, and more in this concise summary of the Texas Revolution’s legendary “last stand.”

During the Texas Revolution, the Mexican Army clashed with Texan forces on several battlefields—the most famous of which was the Alamo. During this thirteen-day siege, a small group of defenders held out against overwhelming odds only to die in the final Mexican assault on the Alamo mission. Although it was clearly a tactical defeat for the Texans, this legendary “last stand” was a sentinel event during the Texas Revolution. Today, the Alamo still evokes sentiments of patriotism, courage, and determination against great odds.

Learn how Bowie, Travis, and Neill fought a desperate fight against the vastly superior army of General Santa Anna. Also learn how Santa Anna inadvertently let tactical victory turn into strategic defeat.

The Battle Digest summary includes all the key aspects of the campaign and battle, including maps, images, and lessons learned.
