Jackson, Crockett and Houston on the American Frontier

The 1813 storming of Fort Mims by Creek Indians brought to light the careers of Andrew Jackson, David Crockett and Sam Houston. All three fought the Creeks and each would have his part to play two decades later when the Alamo was stormed. This book tells the stories of the two landmark battles - Fort Mims and the Alamo - and the interwoven lives of Jackson, Crockett and Houston.
