Book Overview

The San Jacinto Campaign is a historical book written by Eugene Campbell Barker in 1901. The book provides a detailed account of the Battle of San Jacinto, a pivotal event in the Texas Revolution, which took place on April 21, 1836. The battle was fought between the Texian army, led by General Sam Houston, and the Mexican army, led by General Antonio L������pez de Santa Anna. The book describes the events leading up to the battle, including the Texian retreat from Gonzales and the fall of the Alamo, as well as the battle itself, which ended in a decisive Texian victory.
