Kompletní popis

One medical man's Mexican War This curiously titled book-El Puchero-is principally comprised of the journal entries of a young surgeon of volunteers on campaign with Scott during the American-Mexican War. This is a very rare book in every sense and cannot be readily found or purchased by the modern reader, which will only enhance its pleasure, because its author has an easy, companionable style and is ready to appreciate incident, humour and the essential detail of camp life and the battlefield. All the principal engagements of Scott's campaign are described in authentic detail including the capture of Mexico City itself. The journal has been augmented with contemporary accounts and overviews of the actions witnessed by the author making this title a well rounded source for the subject.
