Download or read book Dispatches from the Mexican War written by George Wilkins Kendall and published by . This book was released on 1999-01 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pioneering war correspondent George Wilkins Kendall (1809-67) wrote vividly from Mexico about America's first foreign war, which, after the victories of Zachary Taylor and Winfield Scott, enlarged our borders to include California, Texas, and New Mexico in the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Noted military historian Lawrence Delbert Cress has collected and annotated Kendall's more than two hundred dispatches for the first time in this single volume. Kendall brought a keen eye, a good ear, and a critical voice to the war coverage, writing sometimes several times a day as he traveled with Taylor's army in northern Mexico and with the soldiers under Scott's command who defeated Santa Anna and occupied Mexico City. His cogent reports, published in the New Orleans Picayune, reveal a dry wit, an abiding faith in America's "manifest destiny", and a clear understanding that warfare involved much more than the marching of armies. They highlight military maneuvers and their attendant supply and communication problems, the machinations of American and Mexican politics, the burdens borne by common soldiers on both sides, and the hardships endured by Mexican civilians unable to escape the hostilities. These newspaper dispatches are indispensable for an understanding of the Mexican War, which trained the generals who later served on both sides in the Civil War.

Download or read book Shamrock and Sword written by Robert Ryal Miller and published by . This book was released on 1989-09 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shamrock and Sword's setting is the U.S.-Mexican War, remembered by Americans as an illustration of Manifest Destiny, the inevitable extension of the American frontier. It is remembered differently by Mexicans, who lost a substantial portion of their territory to an invading army. Perceptions on both sides of the border will be reshaped by Robert Ryal Miller's account of American soldiers who deserted to fight in the Mexican army. Miller uncovers the reasons for these desertions, presenting the soldiers' stories as they are revealed in records of the time. Many of these deserters were immigrant Irishmen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Found on monuments throughout the South, the sentiment "Lest we forget!" represents the theme of Remembering Georgia's Confederates. Dedicated to the men and women who served Georgia when her heart belonged to the Confederate States of America, this volume remembers the state's Confederate past--a time of passion, devotion, honor, courage, faith, perseverance, sacrifice, and loss. Georgia, rich in its heritage, boasts numerous locales to visit, learn about, and remember its role in the Confederacy: the battlefields and their interpretive centers, the coastal forts, the prison camp, the world's largest painting, the world's largest Confederate memorial, a pair of locomotive engines, a number of Confederate cemeteries, and various homes, museums, and history centers.

Download or read book Surrounded by Dangers of All Kinds written by Theodore Laidley and published by War & the Southwest. This book was released on 1997 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a young army officer during the War with Mexico, Laidley commanded a field battery at Cerro Gordo and was instrumental in defending Pueblo against Santa Anna. His war letters to his father from 1845-48 reveal his low opinion of volunteer soldiers, cynicism about military promotions, and concerns over his physical and spiritual health. McCaffrey (history, U. of Houston) leaves Laidley's spelling and grammar intact, but introduces paragraph breaks. He briefly discusses the officer's life before and after the war.
