Who were some of the prominent defenders of the Alamo?
Davy Crockett
Why did Billy Joel put Davy Crockett in his song 'We Didn't Start The Fire'?
I actually had to search Wikipedia for the answer as I had the same question. Here is what I found:In 1955 Jesús Sanchez Garza self-published a book called La Rebellion de Texas-Manuscrito Inedito de 1836 por un Ofical de Santa Anna purporting to be memoirs of José Enrique de la Peña, a Mexican officer present at the Battle of the Alamo. Some historians, including Bill Groneman, found it suspicious that Garza's compilation was published in 1955, at the height of interest in Crockett and the Alamo caused by Walt Disney's television miniseries about Crockett's life, Davy Crockett.
