La Legislatura Del Estado Libre Y Soberano De Mexico A Los Habitantes Del Mismo

DEL MORAL, THOMAS RAMON [DIPUTADO PRESIDENTE]

Publication: Impreso Por Quijano y Gallo, 1847, Toluca

8" x 5 1/2." 11pp. A "rare and virtually unknown pamphlet from the Mexican-American War from the Mexican Congress to its people in the midst of the Mexican-American War. Here, the Mexican government implores the populace for an end to internal bickering and instead to concentrate on defeating the American forces who intend to subjugate not only Mexico but all of the Americas. The Mexican legislature also argues clearly for guerrilla warfare. The work was issued just after the Battle of Cerro Gordo, and also printed as a broadside, with priority of the two editions unknown. "Dated April 26, 1847, this rare and virtually unknown pamphlet criticizes the way the central government is handling the war. The writers are especially upset over taxation and the fiscal policy. Not in Haferkorn" - Garrett & Goodwin. Scattered foxing and with a small ink notation to title page. Very good.
