Produced by Mike Lynch and David Widger
"Remember the Alamo" by Amelia E. Barr is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative begins in the picturesque city of San Antonio, Texas, in the lead-up to the Mexican-American conflict where figures from diverse backgrounds, including American settlers, Mexicans, and Native Americans, interact amidst growing tensions. Central to the opening chapters are Dr. Robert Worth, a respected physician navigating the complexities of family and political loyalties, and his daughter Antonia, who embodies the cultural nuances of her heritage while grappling with emerging conflicts. The opening of the novel paints a vivid picture of San Antonio in the mid-19th century, characterized by its cultural diversity and the intertwining lives of its inhabitants. As Dr. Worth engages with his community, we witness Antonia's youthful hopes and loves, particularly her connection with the charming Don Luis, against the backdrop of the increasing call for independence among American settlers. Layered with themes of family, identity, and freedom, the story unfolds as the setting transforms from a romanticized city into a battleground of ideals, thus establishing a rich context for the broader historical events that will inevitably lead to the iconic phrase, "Remember the Alamo."
