Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. vii+194 pages with tables, notes on sources and index. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's grey cloth with silver lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Dr. Gene Brack s first book is derived from his doctoral dissertation at the University of Texas. He is currently Associate Professor of History at New Mexico State University. The book is based largely upon intensive research in such sources as Mexican newspapers and contemporary pamphlets printed in the period from the independence of Mexico to the outbreak of the war with the United States. The author believes that Mexican newspapers are the single most important source of information concerning Mexican attitudes (p. 185) toward the United States. Whereas newspapers may be commonly recognized as a source for historical research, they must be used with extreme care as any modern reader of them today will agree for they always tend to stress the sensational and advance particular viewpoints, while ignoring mundane and contradictory points of view. Dr. Brack s research is based primarily on materials consulted in the Latin American Collection at the University of Texas and the Bancroft Library, in addition to those of the Biblioteca Nacional and Hemeroteca Nacional in Mexico City.
