March 10th marks the beginning of Sam Houston’s “Washington” moment of the Texas Revolution. He hears about the Alamo falling and plans - against the wishes of nearly all his advisors - a long sequence of strategic retreats. They starve Santa Anna’s half of the army (he split with Urrea) of supplies and shelter as they retreat further east. Now they wait for the perfect moment, but not without some horrifying losses later in the month.
