The SC-TX connection is huge with this one.

Three Roads to the Alamo by William C. Davis is a must read if you're a fan of the Alamo or patriots involved.

He paints the truth about Travis, Crockett, and Bowie, all of questionable character but truly labels them as heroes and patriots all the while.

Long read but worth it.

I think he left SC when he was a boy.
I know he became a lawyer in Monroe County,Alabama.
He went heavily into debt somehow and couldn't repay.
His wife divorced him,and he left Alabama in shame.
That's when he went to Texas.
