The United States, Mexico, and the Struggle over Texas
By: Richard Bruce Winders
With the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, U.S. territory suddenly adjoined Spain's New World colonies. Thus the stage was set for a protracted and ever-changing struggle, as New Spain became Mexico, Texas won its independence from Mexico and then joined the U.S., the U.S. fought Mexico and won territory, and Texas seceded from the U.S. to join the confederacy. This book is unusual in presenting these events as an on-going process. Black and white illustrations.
Softcover, 206 pp.
