Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Our First War in Mexico
It was the expectation Of a second war, two years ago, that revived my own ln terest in the war of 1846 - 48. Most of its histories can be divided into two classes. First come those written immediately after the conclusion Of peace. The authors of these painted everything red, white, and blue, and chanted songs of glory. Then come the histories written under what may be called Abolition in?uence. The authors Of these painted everything coal black and passed by on the other side.
