Alexander and Dan K. Utley chose to go beyond the familiar military sites of Texas—the Alamo or the San Jacinto battlefield, for example—to feature lesser known locations. The book successfully recovered these “forgotten” arenas for tourists and preservationists alike. Alexander and Utley now return with \u003ci\u003eEchoes of Glory\u003c\/i\u003e, and the result is another impressive catalogue that highlights the hidden gems of Texas history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEchoes of Glory\u003c\/i\u003e explores two dozen rarely discussed but equally significant military sites across Texas. From the establishment of a Spanish fortress at San Sabá during the mission era to a multimillion-dollar Cold War naval base, readers will find a range of sites and stories to enlighten and entertain. Rare illustrations contrast each site with how it appeared in its glory days to how it appears today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEchoes of Glory\u003c\/i\u003e underscores the need to preserve or fully interpret such places before they are lost forever.","brand":"Texas A\u0026M University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47130821394672,"sku":"9781623493387","price":17.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781623493387_p0.jpg?v=1763866836","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781623493387","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
