description: "It was as if two powerful birds had entered the sky within a single year. The Eagle in the south, The Raven in the north, each circling and gaining strength, each progressing in the consolidation of its own powers. For forty-two tempestuous years the adversaries would fly in ever-widening orbits until confrontation became inevitable. They would meet only once, a clash of eighteen culminating minutes in the spring of 1836 which would change the history of the world." - James A. Michener--Profiles Sam Houston and Santa Anna who figured prominently in the U.S. annexation of Texas and clashed at the decisive battle of San Jacinto.
