Stories Bigger Than Texas: The Alamo Podcast
Episode 65: The Battle Of New Orleans

Here at the Alamo, we believe all history is connected. That’s why we’re taking you to Louisiana where 210 years ago this week, some two decades before the Battle of the Alamo, a struggle between two nations helped set the stage for conflicts to come.

We reveal what led to the Battle of New Orleans, what the American victory there represented for what would become the State of Texas, and the fireside chat taking place this week at the Alamo to bring this history full circle. Featuring the Alamo's Senior Curator, Historian, & Lecturer Ernesto Rodriguez.
