Title: Revolution in Texas: How a Forgotten Rebellion and Its Bloody Suppression Turned Mexicans into Americans by Benjamin Heber Johnson ISBN: 0-300-09425-6 Publisher: Yale University Press Pub. Date: 01 November, 2003 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $30.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 5 (2 reviews)

Summary: So much more than border history. . .
Comment: Ben Johnson's study of the Plan de San Diego uprising is so much more than just border history. It touches on international relations, military strategy, identity politics, historiography, demographics, labor history, and how the Texas Rangers got their name. Far more than a 9 year old like me should care about when I could be reading Harry Potter. But he makes the story compelling and relevant. This seemingly isolated movement suggests a great deal about contemporary ethnic and national conflicts around the world. So rush to your local library to borrow this book!
Rating: 5
Summary: A great book
Comment: Well written and argued this book on the Tejano-Mexican rebellion, the Ranger reaction, and the making of Mexican-Americans in Texas is an important book for Texas and the nation. Not to be missed if you have an interest in Texas, or Mexican-American history in the borderlands. A near perfect book. Moreover, this book is readable, which is nice in a day and age when history books are sometimes not worth the bother. A great book!
