Description

Hispanics, Native Americans, and Anglo Americans made agonizing and an important identity decisions on this southwestern region all over the primary half of the nineteenth century. Whereas the Mexican government sought to bring its frontier inhabitants into the national fold by relying on administrative and patronage linkages, Mexico’s northern frontier gravitated toward the expanding American economy. Andrés Reséndez explores how the various and fiercely independent peoples of Texas and New Mexico came to consider themselves as members of 1 particular national community or every other, within the years leading as much as the Mexican-American War.
