William Barrett Travis was the commanding officer of the troops who defended the Alamo in 1836. He is best known for drawing a line in the sand and asking the men to cross the line and fight with him for Texas independence. Now you can hear the story of Colonel Travis told by the other member of that famous moment in Texas history, Trusty, the sword that drew the line in the sand. Join Trusty and Colonel Travis as they come to Texas and become involved in the exciting events leading to the Texas Revolution. Ride with them to San Antonio as they join the small band of brave men defending a run-down old mission called the Alamo. Stand with them for thirteen days as they defend the Alamo from the attacks of Santa Anna's army. Fight with them during the final assault when the men of the Alamo passed from history into legend. This book is part of The Lone Star Legends, a series of historical fiction aimed at younger readers.
