The tumultuous times of the Texas War of Independence from Mexico comes alive in the diary of thirteen year old Lucinda Lawrence, living in the Texas colony of Gonzales. From the sometime comical events of her life in a log cabin with three brothers, a raccoon, and hard-working parents, to the tragic consequences of the Battle of the Alamo and the subsequent Runaway Scrape of colonists fleeing Gen. Santa Anna's Army, Lucinda shares her adventures, her joy, her sorrow, and her heart with readers.
