Mexico Redux (Hardcover): Philip F. Rose Mexico Redux (Hardcover)
Philip F. Rose
R814 R693 Discovery Miles 6 930 Save R121 (15%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Before the tragedy of the Civil War tore the United States in two, America was involved in another war, one that has not received nearly the attention it deserves. In fact, the Mexican-American War, 1846-1848, could arguably be called the training ground for the Civil War a little over a decade later.

Author Phillip K. Rose turns the spotlight on this important historical event in American history in Mexico Redux. Rose digs into the heart of this conflict and calls it the most significant war in American history. Through an eclectic mix of fact and fiction, he profiles some of the war's major and minor players, offering new ideas and concepts that challenge the current historical record.

Through the eyes of historical figures, the Mexican-American war comes to life. Santa Anna describes his tumultuous experiences at the Alamo and the Battle of Buena Vista while General Zachary Taylor discusses the Battle of Resaca de la Palma in chilling detail. Lesser known individuals, such as naval officer Robert Field Stockton and ordinary soldier Lew Wallace, also lend their voices to this historic drama.

Inventive and thoroughly researched, Mexico Redux provides an important addition to our understanding of the Mexican-American War.

John Brown's Virginia Raid (Paperback): Philip F. Rose John Brown's Virginia Raid (Paperback)
Philip F. Rose
R683 Discovery Miles 6 830 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The Great Virginia Raid is the story of John Brown's attempt to seize the United States arsenal at Harper's Ferry, West Virginia, and free the slaves living in the vicinity. Ten of Brown's men were killed, Brown himself was arrested, put on trial, found guilty, and was executed. The events occupied a pivotal point in the history of the United States when slavery was readily acceptable by the South. Slavery was about to be overthrown, and the study of John Brown's actions was classic. In this new book about John Brown, much emphasis was placed upon contemporary newspaper accounts and material obtained from various historical societies and museums.
