Abstract
- A biography of Louis Rose is presented. Born in 1785 in France, Rose immigrated to live in Natchitoches, Louisiana before he was recruited by Haden Edwards in November 1826 for the Fredonia Rebellion. He is said to be the only one who decided to leave the Texan troops in the Alamo led by Colonel William Travis on March 3, 1836 when defeat was certain. Also explored are the accounts of his escape from enemy lines and the ignominy resulting from his abandonment of the troops.
