San Antonio Rose (Historical Romance) - Plot & Excerpts
Just four days before, an advance guard of Santa Anna's army had passed through the village, and people had been forced to dodge clamoring hooves to keep from being trampled beneath them.Now more troops were passing through the village, and the inhabitants were beginning to wonder if it would ever end.It was said that Santa Anna's mission was to put down the insurrection in Tejas-an insur rection that was spreading and gaining momentum because of a handful of malcontents who declared themselves free and independent of Mexican rule. The long column of soldiers was an ominous sight, with their flags waving, pennants unfurled, and colorful banners snapping in the wind. The mounted cavalry wore dark blue tailcoats with metal buttons that shone in the sunlight-they appeared formidable, equipped with rifles, swords, and long lances.It was easy to distinguish Generalisimo Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, El Presidente of all Mexico, from the others. He rode at the head of his troops, arrayed in ornamental battle gear.
