After San Jacinto: The Texas-Mexican Frontier, 1836-1841
Autor Joseph Milton Nanceen Limba Engleză Paperback – 1962
But neither country was in a strong position to substantiate claims; so the conflict developed as a war of futile threats, border raids, and counterraids. Nevertheless, men died—often heroically—and this is the first full story of their bitter struggle. Based on original sources, it is an unbiased account of Texas-Mexican relations in a crucial period.
