Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Few Facts: About Mexico The Aztecs were the last to reach the valley. After many years of servitude and privations, they finally settled on the islands near the western borders of Lake Texcoco. There, according to an old legend, they found an eagle upon a cactus and holding a snake in its beak, and thereupon established their capital called T'enochtitlan, upon the site of the present City of Mexico. The monarchy of the Aztecs in creased in importance and power from the year 1376, when the first king was elected, until it was finally conquered by the Spaniards un der H-ernan Cortez. The latter landed in Veracruz on April 2lst, 1519. His conquest of the country and the stubborn resistance of the Aztecs are subjects which have been the theme of the historian and the poet, the siege of the City of Mexico being the final and culminating scene of that his torical drama. The capital was captured on August 13, 1521, when the conqueror Cortez became governor and captain-general of the coun try, which was called New Spain.

Download or read book Mexico Old and New written by Sullivan Holman McCollester and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexico, Old and New: A Wonder-Land If I am so fortunate as to enable the reader of the succeeding pages through mental vision to see things somewhat as I saw them, and to learn the fact, as I did, contrary to my expectation, that the best blood of Mexico at the present time runs in Indian veins, not Castilian. which has come down from the Aztecs, Toltecs, and, perchance, from Egypt and Chaldaea, I shall be glad and amply remunerated. Previous to my recent wanderings and experience in the new Republic, I had been led to think and fully believe from what I had read and heard that the hope and salvation of Mexico was in the hands of those who looked back to Spain as their mother-country; but I found the actual to be far otherwise. The talent and promise are confined almost exclusively to the so-called Indians. The term Indian has been misleading to our northern people, causing them to judge the natives there to be somewhat similar to the Blackfoot, or Pequoid of Oregon, yet far more degraded. From the advent of Cortez into the country they have been pictured by the Spaniards as a most barbarous and degraded race, pests and burdens to the land. They were made slaves by the Spanish lords, and by their endurance and fortitude they have proved themselves of noble extraction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexico and the Mexicans: Or Notes of Travel in the Winter and Spring Not less fascinating was his description of the gorgeous hues of the flowers, the splendid coloring of the butterflies, and the brilliant plumage of the birds all of which seemed like pictures of fairy-land. Nor have I forgotten the testimony which he bore to the high courtesy with which he was everywhere received and treated, in social, as well as in official circles. Now that the bonds of friendship and alli ance between our own country and our sister Republic are about to be drawn so much closer; now that a new, auspicious, and even brilliant era is about to dawn upon the Land of the Aztecs, I made up my mind, in the month of January last, to see Mexico with my own eyes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexico as It Was and as It Is Since the year 1843, several revolts against the existing government have taken place in Mexico, and the diplomatic intercourse between us has been of increasing importance, not only on account of the Texan dis pute, but in consequence of a growing anxiety as to what is likely to be hereafter our Southern boundary, and along what parallel of latitude it is to run westwardly towards the Pacific. These considerations have induced me to revise a work, which, three years ago, I prepared for the press in the brief space of thirty days; and, - whilst I crave pardon for that act Of indiscretion, and am thankful for the favor with which it, nevertheless, was welcomed - I must frankly declare that I have found no cause to alter the statement of a single fact or Opinion. My aim was to present an unprejudiced picture of Mexico, andl hope I may be permitted to declare without vanity, that I'have the satisfaction to know from Mexicans whose good esteem is worthy Of all respect, that my views of their country and their character were received as the most just and favorable that had been published.
