Slaughter at Goliad by Jay A Stout

Slaughter at Goliad by Jay A Stout

Texas lost many volunteers during its hard-won fight for independence from Mexico, but one harrowing episode stands out. Following a one-sided battle on the prairie near Coleto Creek, two hundred and fifty mostly American prisoners were marched back to the presidio at Goliad where they were joined by more than two hundred others.

Jay Stout deftly details the little-known--and deeply disturbing--tale of blunder and bluff that, on Palm Sunday 1836, led to the incredible Mexican massacre of hundreds of American captives at a long-forgotten Texas outpostPowerful and fascinating." -- W.E.B. Griffin, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author
