President James K. Polk and Congress declared war on Mexico in 1846, ten years after the Alamo. Two years later, the U.S. took 55 percent of Mexico’s land, including California, Arizona, New Mexico, and the southern parts of Nevada, Utah, and Colorado. Mexicans living in the Southwest became Mexican Americans in 1849. In Mexico, people were impoverished, enjoyed few liberties, had no public school system, and lacked infrastructural amenities. In an effort to take over its rich resources, France forced Mexico into another war in the early 1860s. Porfirio Diaz emerged a hero and governed Mexico the next forty years, until Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata overthrew him in 1911. Do the vestiges of this history and the Mexican Revolution still impact all of us today?

Using original pictures by Mexican and international photographers, photos not often seen, except in rare-book collections, and others available in the public domain, this photographic book narrates events during Mexican Revolution. What is different here is that this picture history shows how the U.S. presidents and its leaders influenced Mexico’s revolution. Previous histories copy photographs of the revolution, but my book describes the alliances and the betrayals, describing who did what to whom when, between 1906 and 1928. Here are 100+ pages full of revelations that will enlighten readers!

Features a Foreword by John Mason Hart
