Having a witness's account from the Mexican side during San Jacinto, Alamo and the Siege of Bexar is actually priceless. The more information gathered from both sides sheds light on these battles as a whole. Cheers! Great details and interview
WOW! Thank you guys for this interview, it hit alot closer to home than I would have imagined growing up in East Bernard Tx. I KNOW firsthand exactly how bad the sea of mud can get!
This is just what I wanted to see. I'd seen a youtube on the Goliade massacre. Then I caught another youtube about San Jacinto. And I realized Houston had only dealt with the part of the Mexican army that was about the size of his own army. And I was wondering, why didn't the other Mexican armies just combine and wipe out Huston once and for all. I didn't think they would simply retreat because a captured general said so. So now I know the answer. The Sea of Mud. Seems to me like the Hand of God saved Texas in the end.
@34:30 ish. Why would he or anyone else think that ANYKIND of cannonball found near Wharton, Texas would be from the civil war!?! I don’t know of ANY CIVIL WAR battles that were fought anywhere nearby. So EVERYTHING militarily that is found should be assumed to be from the War of Texas Independence
He crossed over at Paso de Francia (the Frenchman's Pass). It lies about six miles downriver from the Mexican border town of Guerrero. Thanks for the question, Sergio!
Good things come to those who wait! Imagine missing out on this fantastic interview and all the little known knowledge given in the firsthand account because you are too impatient to wait to get to the good stuff!

Outstanding
Amazing thank you....I do have one question where did Santa cross the rio grande on his way to the Alamo?
He crossed over at Paso de Francia (the Frenchman's Pass). It lies about six miles downriver from the Mexican border town of Guerrero. Thanks for the question, Sergio!
Thank you for the response can’t wait to buy those 3 volume books I love Texas History!!

Great interview. And incredible insight in Texas history.
Just a little advice don’t take so long to get to the actual interesting points and finds so your podcasts don’t end up being boring
