Summary "Harper's Round Table, August 11, 1896" by Various is a periodical publication written in the late 19th century. This work comprises various articles and stories aimed at a young audience, covering historical accounts, fictional narratives, and informative pieces about contemporary events and cultural topics. Among its offerings is a narrative on the bravery of American patriots at the Alamo, introducing characters like Bryce Gordon and Captain Frank Gordon, who discuss the importance of American history and heroism. The opening of this compilation presents a conversation between young Bryce Gordon and his uncle, Captain Frank Gordon, as they explore the historical significance of the Alamo. Bryce expresses his admiration for ancient Greek heroes and wishes for a comparable site in America. The uncle, in response, recounts the defense of the Alamo, detailing its historical context, key figures, and the valiant stand taken by a small group of Texan soldiers against a much larger Mexican force. Through Captain Gordon's storytelling, young readers are drawn into the narrative of courage and patriotism, setting the tone for the educational and entertaining content that follows in the magazine.
