Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Jack Tier, Vol. 1 of 2: Or, the Florida Reef
We have had occasion to refer often to Mexico in these pages. It has been our aim to do so in a kind spirit; for, while we have never doubted that the fac tions which have possessed themselves of the govern ment in that country have done us great wrong, wrong that would have justified a much earlier appeal to arms, we have always regarded the class of Mexicans who alone can properly be termed the 'people, ' as mild, amiable, and disposed to be on friendly terms with us.
