Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Experiences and Observations of an American Consular Officer During the Recent Mexican Revolutions The Author´s daughter accompanied him to Mexico and resided there for several years, when she married and returned to the States. To keep her informed of the progress of affairs in Mexico - in which she had become considerably interested - he wrote to her from time to time, giving accounts of events as they happened down there. On his own return to this country, finding that his letters had been well preserved, and that they were helpful in refreshing his memory about particulars, he decided to make liberal use of them in compiling these chronicles. Therefore the reader is to understand that all unaddressed, and unsigned letters, or parts of letters, made use of in the preparation of these chronicles, were written by the Author to his daughter, Mrs. W. C. Carrington, of Pueblo, Colorado. Such other letters as may appear in these pages, whether copied from those of the Author to other persons, or from letters of others to the Author, will explain themselves. The publication of these letters is not intended as a contribution to history, nor as even a pretense at giving a full account of the revolutions to which they largely refer, but it is done merely to gratify a personal whim, and afford to any one who may care to do so, the opportunity of living over with the Author, in retrospect, experiences which he and some other Americans had during the most turbulent times of the recent revolutions in Mexico.
