Wild West Magazine

Hey, anybody else pick up Wild West Magazine?  I picked up February's issue, because of the Santa Anna cover, and Alamo content.

This is a really nice magazine that I haven't purchased before.

This particular issue had, as mentioned, several articles relating to the Alamo.  There is a short note on actors who have portrayed Santa Anna.  A nice, critical list of books and movies on the Alamo is also here.

I especially enjoyed an article on author Stephen Crane's time in San Antonio.  It was several decades after the famous battle, but the legendary write of The Red Badge of Courage does cross paths with Teddy Roosevelt.

The articles are generally short, but to the point....  And there are a lot of fun facts, photos, etc.
