Set in San Antonio in the years leading up to and through the siege of the Alamo, the novel follows a family caught on the fault line between Mexican and Anglo-Texan loyalties, as personal relationships and political allegiance become impossible to keep separate once the fighting actually starts.

Amelia E. Barr published Remember the Alamo in 1888, more than fifty years after the events it depicts.

Bibliomancer publishes the 1888 text exactly as Amelia E. Barr wrote it.
