About This Item
1850 1ed Mexican American War Livermore Indians Texas Annexation Mexico Battles
"The War with Mexico Reviewed" is a rare essay account of the Mexican American War that won the literary competition put on by the American Peace Society. Larned says,
"It describes the expenditures, inhumanities, views of camps, military executions, and all the horrors of the war. It ascribes the cause of the war to the avarice of the slave owners and the land hunger of the Americans" (Larned)
"War with Mexico Reviewed" was awarded the five-hundred-dollar prize offered by the American Peace Society
"for the best review of the Mexican War on the principles of Christianity, and an enlightened statesmanship."
This rare 1850 edition includes discussions on battles fought with soldiers and Indians, annexation of new territories including New Mexico, Texas, California, the moral failings caused by war, and much more.
