Description

From the battle of Buena Vista to the capture of Mexico City, this book is the most detailed study of both armies yet published and includes many previously unpublished pictures from both American and Mexican archives. It is a thorough analysis of both US and Mexican armies with chapters detailing the range of their uniforms, weapons and equipment. The Mexican-American War was a crucial conflict for the emerging United States, and created an army that would later face the test of the American Civil war.
