Forget the Alamo!: A Tale of Alternative History

Author Bio: Drew McGunn

Drew McGunn lives in Texas with his wonderfully supportive wife. He started writing in high school and after college worked the nine-to-five grind for many years, while the stories in his head rattled around, begging to be released. After one too many video games, he awoke from his desire for one more turn and returned to his love of the printed word. His love of history led him to study his roots, and as a sixth generation Texan, he decided to write about the founding of Texas as a Republic. There were many terrific books about early Texas, but hardly any about alternate histories of the great state. With that in mind, he wrote his debut novel Forget the Alamo! as a reimagining of the first days of the Republic. When he’s not writing or otherwise putting food on the table, he enjoys traveling to historic places or reading other engaging novels from up and coming authors.
