Episode 120: The Alamo Under Siege
The Siege of the Alamo meant 12 days of psychological warfare: with each sunrise and sunset, not knowing whether battle was imminent, or if war games would continue to impact your manpower, your supplies, and your mental state.
We reveal how a sense of hubris may have impacted the Texans and the Mexicans, the intelligence network keeping both sides informed, and how battle plans and reinforcements took shape ahead of what would be a battle to the death. Featuring the Texas Center's Dr. Don Frazier.
