About This Item
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2004. Cloth. Near Fine/No Dust Jacket as Issued. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 309p. index. It was Lewis Grizzard (the only eyewitness to the event) who said when Mexicans were hung for rebellion against the United States "but it was their country"--The Anglo-Hispanic culture which was far more pronounced in blending in New Mexico; nevertheless, was a main part of Texas history. The author writes: "This was a world of fluid identities." Besides Lorenzo de Zavala, there is the case of Stephen F. Austin who not only shifted his loyalities giving up his U.S. citizenship to become a Mexican national in order to honor a colonization contract his father had made, but many more. What had been the North of Mexico became the American Southwest. An important contribution.
