Stories Bigger Than Texas: The Alamo Podcast
Episode 13: History Road Trip
Two Alamo historians travel America - a history road trip from San Antonio, to El Paso, to Washington D.C., then back home to San Antonio. That’s more than 4,000 miles. And along the way, they uncovered connections to the Alamo that are often overlooked.
Today we reveal what they learned on their journey from the Shrine of Texas Liberty to the Nation’s Capital, and the small towns in between. Featuring the Alamo's Senior Researcher & Historian Kolby Lanham & the Alamo's Researcher Thomas Ledesma.
