Book Reviews
The Crowded Prairie, Michael Coyne, 1997
"Injuns" Edward Buscombe, 2006
John Wayne's Alamo Christopher M Smallbone, January 2014
What excites me about history is that when you scratch beneath the surface you often come up with surprising conclusions. The history of the Myth of the Alamo is no exception. My book is now available from the Amazon store.
Dances with Wolves, Kevin Costner
"The western had managed to remain popular largely by being both thematically and stylistically responsive to the nation's ever changing culture".
The Crowded Prairie , Michael Coyne p86
