The A to Z of the United States-Mexican War

The first reference work of its kind, this volume on the United States-Mexican War encompasses the decade of the 1840s, focusing on the war years of 1846-1848. More than a dozen maps were drawn for this book, some of which depict major regions and localities over which armies of both nations moved great distances to position for battle, and others that depict major battlefields from the first engagement to the last. The dictionary itself contains hundreds of thoroughly researched entries describing the people, battles, campaign trails, armaments, support systems, and political factions involved in the conflict in both nations as well as an array of other topics related to the war
