Encourage all of you to see the exhibit. The relationship is intriguing. What i want to talk about today is my west most recent book, a wicked war polk, clay, lincoln, and the 1846 u. S. Invasion of mexico. The title is taken from a quote from ulysses s. Grant from late in his life. Grant looked back on everything he had done in his career. In his memoirs, he writes frankly about the experiences he had good and bad. It makes for good reading. One thing grant spent time thinking and talking about late in life was his role in the u. S. Mexico war of 1846. Grant said at the time, i do not think there was ever a more make it more more a wicked war waged by the United States against mexico at the time and i had not courage enough to resign. At the time, he was a lieutenant. I found that a moving quote and that is why i took it for my title. Grant was not alone in thinking the u. S. Invasion of mexico was somehow wicked. One thing i will talk about is the evolution of the American Public dur
The title is taken from a quote from ulysses s. Grant. He looked back on his career, and mountain memoirs, he writes frankly about the experiences he had, the good and the bad making for good reading. What he talk about late in life was his role in the u. S. Mexico war in 1846, and grant said, you know, at the time, i do not think there was ever a more wicked war than that waged on the United States by mexico so i thought at the time as a youngster only i had not moral courage enough to resign.

Mexico war, not a long war by any means from being really enthuse yays tix and in favor of invading mexico to largely turning in

In 1914, you had two sides. You had the triple alliance and you had the triple entente that were evenly matched. When germany attacks, france says and what you get is not what anyone thought they would get. A war of attrition. Theodore roosevelt is on the sidelines and is frustrated.
