Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sources for a History of the Mexican War, 1846-1848 Our war of 1846-48 has often been regarded as an isolated event, merely an episode in our history; and to a considerable extent so it was. We fought and we made conquests of value; but neither war nor conquest was an essential part of our national policy. We can lay our fingers upon the causes of the war one by one, and its results are equally within com pass. No foreign nation became involved, nor did serious complications of any sort grow out of the affair. In short, it was much like a small, though vigorous, New England thunderstorm, made up of local currents and a few black, tufted clouds, which overwhelms some valley with darkness, roar and flood, yet is plainly visible in its entirety from the neighboring mountain. For this reason the subject possesses a rare attractiveness for the investigator, so often baffled or embarrassed by the reach of his vistas; while at the same time, as will presently appear, certain peculiar subtleties create a special interest of precisely the opposite kind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Much has been written about the Mexican war, but this . . . is the best military history of that conflict. . . . Leading personalities, civilian and military, Mexican and American, are given incisive and fair evaluations. The coming of war is seen as unavoidable, given American expansion and Mexican resistance to loss of territory, compounded by the fact that neither side understood the other. The events that led to war are described with reference to military strengths and weaknesses, and every military campaign and engagement is explained in clear detail and illustrated with good maps. . . . Problems of large numbers of untrained volunteers, discipline and desertion, logistics, diseases and sanitation, relations with Mexican civilians in occupied territory, and Mexican guerrilla operations are all explained, as are the negotiations which led to war's end and the Mexican cession. . . . This is an outstanding contribution to military history and a model of writing which will be admired and emulated."-Journal of American History. K. Jack Bauer was also the author of Zachary Taylor: Soldier, Planter, Statesman of the Old Southwest (1985) and Other Works. Robert W. Johannsen, who introduces this Bison Books edition of The Mexican War, is a professor of history at the University of Illinois, Urbana, and the author of To the Halls of Montezumas: The Mexican War in the American Imagination (1985).

Download or read book A History of the Mexican War Or Facts for the People Showing the Relation of the United States Government to Slavery written by Loring Moody and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Mexican War, or Facts for the People, Showing the Relation of the United States Government to Slavery: Compiled From Official and Authentic Documents Many valuable works on the relation of the government of the United States to slavery, have already been given to the public. Among which are, "A view of the Action of the Federal Government," by Wm. Jay; "Rights of the Free States Subverted," by Joshua Giddings; and "The Slave Power," by John G. Palfrey. The editions of these, however, are quite exhausted; and for many reasons it is of great importance, that the facts contained in them should be condensed into a single volume. New developments of the workings of Slavery through its grand agent, the government, are every day occurrences; and as the most remarkable of these are embodied in the commencement and progress of the war upon Mexico, I have collected from various sources some of the most prominent facts in the slave-holding relations of the government, including enough of the history of the annexation of Texas, and the Mexican War, to exhibit in a clear light, that the sole object of the nation, in the acquisition of the one, and the prosecution of the other, is the extension and perpetuation of human bondage. In the preparation of this work, I have been materially aided by the above mentioned publications, for which I have taken great pleasure in giving credit. The facts contained in this book, and the positions which they are summoned to establish, are believed to be incontrovertible. They are based upon official documents which are conclusive on the points to which they refer. And we shall challenge the history of the world in vain for another spectacle of such hypocrisy and wickedness as that presented by this nation. It is true, that among the more savage tribes of Africa wars are still carried on for the purpose of adding to the victims of slavery. But these wars are mainly, though in part indirectly, chargeable upon the Americans; who, though they have denounced the foreign traffic, still give their countenance and encouragement to the trade, by keeping open markets for human flesh in the Capitol, and most of the principal towns and cities of more than half the Slates of the Union, and make the "protection, extension, and perpetuation of slavery, the vital and animating principle of the government."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes and Incidents of the Mexican War As many of my friends who read this book, will think it strange that a native of Westmoreland county, Penn'a., should figure as a member of the Missouri Volunteers, I wish to Say, by way of ex planation, that I was born near Latrobe, in 1822. I learned the carpenter trade in Uniontown, Fayette county, and in 1844 I went to Lexington, Lafayette county, Missouri, where I followed my trade up to the time of my enlistment, on the sixth day of June, 1846, at which time I became a member of Company B., First Missouri Cavalry, Captain Wil liam Walton, in the regiment commanded by Colo nel Doniphan, and a part of The Army of the West, under General Kearney. After being mus tered out of service I returned to my home, near Latrobe, Westmoreland county, this state, where I have since resided.
