Book Description
Taos 1847, the revolt in contemporary accounts presents the revolt from a variety of perspectives. They range from the memoirs of a mountain man, dictated many yeas after the events in which he participated, to official reports written a few days after the action and dispatches sent almost before the smoke of battle had cleared. The purpose of this book is simply to gather together in one place as many accounts as possible of this episode in the MExican War which was almost immdeiately overshadowed by the much larger scale events in Mexico.
