Well written concise history of Goliad and the massacre.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Thorough, yet concise history of Goliad and the old Spanish mission, La Bahia. The Goliad Massacre has always been treated as less glamorous than the battles at the Alamo and San Jacinto. This book accurately identifies the importance of this event to the Texas Revolution and elevates it to its position of prominence. This is a chronical of memorable people caught up in the events leading up to the creation of the community of Goliad and the subsequent massacre.
