Description
Pages 328-[329] in John Frost. The Mexican war and its warriors: comprising a complete history of all the operations of the American armies in Mexico. Philadelphia: H. Mansfield, 1848. This item was displayed in the Doheny Library Treasure Room reopening exhibit, 2001-2002, as part of the display on the library's Boeckmann Center. The Boeckmann Center holds many rare works involving nineteenth-century Mexico. Appended to John Frost's publication is one of the earliest English-language versions of the Treaty of Peace, Friendship, Limits and Settlement, also known as the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. The controversial accord, which marked the end of the Mexican-American War in 1848, forced Mexico to cede to the United States a vast region of the desert southwest, including California.
