Volume III of the Alamo Trilogy focuses on the 13-day siege at the Alamo and explores the emotional interactions of the main characters--Micajah Autry and David Crockett. All the diverse patterns and plots among the many characters reach a fitting conclusion in the aftermath of the last skirmish on March 6, 1836, but the future also plays a part as the descendants of Micajah Autry complete their journey of expiation and reconcile themselves to the mythic past. Coming down to more contemporary times, the novel finishes with an exploration of the ironies of history as fact, myth, and a hybrid of the two provide whatever comfort they can to the human spirit longing for a peaceful exit from a troubled world.
