About This Item

[Mexican-American War] Carlos María de Bustamante. El nuevo Bernal Díaz del Castillo, ó sea, Historia de la invasión de los Anglo-Americanos en México. Mexico City: Imprenta de Vicente García Torres, en el ex-convento del Espíritu Santo, 1847. 2 vols. Vol I: [2], [1-3] 4-162, [2] pp., lithograph frontispiece portrait of author; Vol II: [1-3] 4-235 [1, blank], [4] pp. Two volumes in one, 8vo (24 x 15 cm), contemporary quarter sheep over mottled boards, spine gilt lettered. Corners bumped, edge wear, light staining. Very good.

Garrett & Goodwin, p. 12. Howes B1047. Palau 37738. Raines, p.38. Sabin 9584. Spain & Spanish America II, p. 73. Tutorow 3269. "This is undoubtedly one of the best contemporary accounts of the Mexican War. Volume I deals almost exclusively with the background to the war, while the second volume focuses on the internal politics of Mexico during the war. Includes the text of several of Paredes' manifestos. Omits any systematic treatment of the military phases of the war and has little to say about causes other than the United States was guilty of aggression against Mexico because of annexing Texas" - Tutorow.
