new show, Texas Rising? It's must see tv for a history fanatic me... You?
Nacogdoches is in the Piney Woods not mountains w bluffs. Just sayingI tried the first episode last night. I thought it was very drawn out the first 30 minutes just like 90% of serial presentations, just like the Hatfield and McCoy's before it. Maybe I should have stuck with it, but it's not like I can't pick it up on rerun someday..........
I wanted to see it just to watch an inept Mexican Army kick the crap out of the "heroes" of the Alamo. Texas is almost as good as the British at turning defeat into "victory" (e.g., Dunkirk, charge of the light brigade). It's called propaganda.
WhyNota I appreciate your pointing out the landmarks; sometimes these shows intentionally throw out those bones just so we can pick at them. I was wondering exactly where those mountainous areas were and how much of the state is like that kind of terrain?
