Yet another well done documentary by the History Channel. This film takes an in depth look at the events surrounding one of the most infamous battles in American History. A true tail of pride, honor and bravery in the face of certain death. It says in the Bible “Greater love knows no man than this; that he lay down his life for a friend.” That’s why this story is so powerful! These men knew that they would die, and still they lay down their lives that their fellow Texans might have just a chance at liberty! You have to see this Film.
Good assortment of Alamo documentaries, some more accurate than others. "Remember the Alamo", hosted by Dennis Quaid, is the most up to date, accurate Alamo documentary that I've seen. The Crockett bio is just the same old myths and boilerplate brush over of his life; no real depth and none of the more recent research on his life. The old Real West Alamo program is out of date and another of the cookie-cutter documentaries in that series.

Done quite well, as are most History Channel productions. Bought it because we just returned from visiting San Antonio and the Alamo and wanted to hear more. The only negative that I can say is that they don't always remain "neutral" while telling the story. The facts are told neutrally, but you can't help but notice that some comments lean toward the American's viewpoint without regard to the Mexican's side of the story. Overall though, well done and a great view prior to any visit to the Alamo.
Very good I would recomend reading the book 13 Days to Glory for a really good historical prospective also.
