Description

"During the decade 1910-1920, the southern border of the United States was in constant turmoil as a result of the revolution taking place in Mexico at that time. Residents of Texas watched with concern as the civil strife in the country to the south engendered violence that spilled across the Rio Grande into their own state. This book studies the interaction between Texas and the united States as each attempted to deal with Mexico and the border situation, as well as the relationship of both state and nation with the various factions active in the Mexican Revolution."--Publisher's description.
