Title: First-rate, concrete, image-driven poetry.
Review: The Alamo is a natural subject for an epic poem, though the form has fallen out of favor. Congratulations to Michael Lind, and to his publisher, for taking a chance on such an ambitious project. The poetry is first-rate, concrete, image-driven work that captures the flavor of the battle detail by detail. Laced with wit, and historically informed, I count this as the single best non-academic approach to the subject that I've seen.
