The Story of Francisca Alvarez and Descendants - Dan Alvarez Garza - Bog

The author tells the story of the "The Angel of Goliad" and her descendants. During the Texas Revolution in 1836, a beautiful, innocent 20-year-old lady traveled with the Mexican Army as an educator for General Urrea's family. Abducted by the Apache at a young age, she was raised in a Catholic orphanage where she became well-educated and very religious. She had no idea what she was getting into when she arrived in Goliad, Texas, with General Urrea and his family. With her love and respect for humanity, she knew she had to do something to stop the killing. Francisca Alvarez tried desperately to stop the massacre of hundreds of young American soldiers defending Texas. Yet, for nearly 200 years, no one has uncovered her true identity. Based on a true story.
