The Alamo Blueprint - Alamo Compound Fine Art Print

The Alamo As It Was in 1836 Back in 1938, Col. A. J. Houston combined the drawings and notes of Texian Army Captain Green B. Jameson (January 1836), Mexican Army Colonel Ignacio Labastida (March 1836) and US Army Captain Reuben Potter (1841) to create this composite showing the Alamo compound as it was during the siege and battle.  Andrew Jackson Houston was the second son of General Sam and Margaret. He practiced law, led a troop of Rough Riders under Teddy Roosevelt and from 1924 to 1941 was superintendent of the San Jacinto Battleground. It was during that period that he began to research and write on subjects of Texas history. That's how this map came about. It gives the dimension of each feature, shows the location or the Alamo cannons, and notes where the bodies of Travis, Bowie, and Crockett were pointed out to Santa Anna by Alcalde Ruiz after the battle. Presented here in stunning blueprint form, it's as handsome as it is interesting.  Physical Details 18 by 24 inches Fits in a standard size frame.
