Description

2006 Scholar's Bookshelf reprint edition of possibly the most important source for the study of Kearny's occupation of New Mexico and Doniphan's conquest of Chihuahua, ""the most adventurous and colorful military campaigns in the Southwest during the Mexican War,"" in the words of the editor of this account, Ralph P. Bieber. The work comprises a daily journal of the experiences of the author, a Missouri volunteer, who recorded virtually everything he saw of the natural setting of the American Southwest at the time as well as northern Mexico, along with the difficulties of the march in the heat and the rain across the Plains to Bent's Fort, bugs, camping, getting sick after drinking the water, and surprisingly little military action thanks to Kearny's diplomacy and the size of his forces. Includes a great deal of information about daily activities, and the inhabitants of the area as well as the officers of the Army. A special feature of the book is the editor's nearly 100-page Introduction providing a full account of the background of the Mexican War and Kearny and Doniphan's expeditions. Includes original map.
