Customer Reviews

This is a great book I recommend.

Today we hear so called "immigrant rights" groups claiming Texas was stolen land from Mexico and spews out their racist agenda saying all whites should be out of the territory. But this book rebutts their claim by proving that Mr. Austin, founding father of the Texas, was a loyal citizen of Mexico and did not want to Texas to be part of United States. This book also points out that it was Senor Santa Ana who did not respect both freedom -loving Mexicanos and Anglos, broke out the war, and later caused his downfall. I recommend this book to anyone regardless of their heritage who would seek real truth behind American history.

Outstanding book gives the real story of the Mexican War

Like many people, I was given the ration of bull about how the Mexican War (1846-1848) was just an example of the US picking on a poor, defenseless nation. This book, though, sets the record straight. Even though it is a small tome, it packs a wallop in both information and logic. It lays out the case that Texas was as independent from Mexico as Mexico was from Spain and that Texas was as free to do with its freedom whatever it wanted to including joining the US. It lays out the case that the Texas border was at the Rio Grande, not the Neuces. It lays out a particularly devestating case that shows Mexican saber-rattling. I urge everyone who has the slightest bit of interest in that time period to read this book.
