" Wonderfully illustrated, Mark Lemon's book revisits the panoramic view of the historic event as a moment in time, but more importantly, the historic values of the art and architecture of the Alamo." -Joseph P. Sánchez, Ph.D., editor of Colonial Latin American Historical Review, " Wonderfully illustrated, Mark Lemon's book revisits the panoramic view of the historic event as a moment in time, but more importantly, the historic values of the art and architecture of the Alamo." --Joseph P. Snchez, Ph.D., editor of Colonial Latin American Historical Review, "Combining the artist's imagination with a scholar's attention to detail, Alamo enthusiast Mark Lemon has produced the single most comprehensive volume on the Alamo as it was at the time of its rendezvous with history. The Illustrated Alamo 1836 will bring hours of pleasure to anyone wishing to gain an understanding of how a dilapidated Spanish mission became the stage for the most famous event in Texas history." --Jesus Francisco de la Teja, State Historian of Texas, "Many visitors to the Alamo know only its iconic postcard image. Those who realize there was more to the old mission compound are surprised to find that so much has been lost over time. Alamo aficionados long for resurrection. Mark Lemon has produced something for all of them--the curious and the serious. The Illustrated Alamo 1836: A Photographic Journey is a must for anyone who wishes to visualize the Alamo as it appeared at the time of the battle."--Richard Bruce Winders, historian and curator of The Alamo, "Many visitors to the Alamo know only its iconic postcard image.

Barring a time machine or a crystal ball, our knowledge of the Alamo's architecture will forever remain a work-in-progress, but Mark's book sets us ahead a few paces in several important areas." --Gary S. Zaboly, illustrator of Blood of Noble Men: The Alamo Siege & Battle, "Other books tell readers what the Alamo was about; this one transports them to a lost time and place." --Stephen L. Hardin, author of Texian Iliad and Texian Macabre, " The Illustrated Alamo 1836: A Photographic Journey is replete with remarkable photo-illustrations and paintings that bring to life America's most famous mission-fortress. Mark Lemon has done more than just provide readers with breathtaking and uncanny views of the Alamo; he has illuminated the Shrine of Texas Liberty with remarkable skill." --William R. Chemerka, founder of The Alamo Society and editor of The Alamo Journal, " Wonderfully illustrated, Mark Lemon's book revisits the panoramic view of the historic event as a moment in time, but more importantly, the historic values of the art and architecture of the Alamo." --Joseph P. Sánchez, Ph.D., editor of Colonial Latin American Historical Review

Synopsis
The most iconic historic place in America may also be the most misunderstood. For more than 170 years, the true nature and appearance of the Alamo, the cradle of Texas liberty, has eluded historians and artists alike. Partially demolished soon after the famous battle, the mission/fortress's appearance grew more and more indistinct. Even more recently, Hollywood has itself compounded the problem by redesigning the place to suit the artistic purposes of the dramatic script. But the truth was lurking all along, in old sketches, plats, diagrams, and later archeological digs. Now for the first time, all of the available sources have been meticulously consulted and brought together to create the most accurate illustrated book on the true appearance of the Alamo in 1836 ever produced. The reader is taken through the entire compound, inside and out, room to room, and shown areas never before depicted. For clarity, the compound is divided into sectors, each chapter covering a sector, which is then explored in detail. Through extremely realistic photo- illustrations, as well as dramatic original artwork with explanatory text, the author breathes new life into the 1836 Alamo, and makes it real. Scholars, students, artists, and readers of history all will find this a fascinating journey back in time.

It came exactly as it was shown in the pictures.
