The Sandbar Fight of 19 September 1827 made James 'Jim' Bowie famous, as well as the Bowie knife – less than 10 years before the Alamo (where he fell alongside the heroes William Barret Travis and David Crockett) – but it was essentially just a brawl on a sandbar between people who could not let go of grudges and felt the need to act upon them. #History #TexasRevolution #JamesBowie #Duel #SandbarFight #USHistory #HistoryFact https://whe.to/ci/2-2838-en/
