Texan tells a true story of the famous Mier Expedition into Mexico
By: Alexander, John Rufus
Short, actually 24 pages, not 23 as catalogued, account of the Mier Foray into Mexico. As Alexander is elderly and 50 years removed from the expedition when this was written/gathered, the accuracy comes with a caveat emptor, but the writing is excellent, and details seem to accord with history. this is a gripping, fascinating and somewhat depressing military piece, covering this deadly event. Color, details and memories that are unique as presented, a must for any serious student of this era, or Texiana per se.
