Good. <p>First edition.<p>The MexicanAmerican War Apr 25 1846 Feb 2 1848 known in Mexico as the Intervención estadounidense en México was an armed conflict between the United States and Mexico that followed the 1845 U.S. annexation of Texas which Mexico considered Mexican territory. Morse expounds in favor of the war: "If this war was what you say it is and waged wantonly sinfully by the President from mere personal vanity or a petty ambition for the sake of letting the world know who James K. Polk was - if for an end like this all the seas of blood and millions and millions of its treasure lavished all in violation of the constitution - if you make good this charge then has the President of the United States been guilty not of moral merely but of actual treason and that of the deepest dye; not through ignorance but with malice aforethought. If all this be true then has he damned himself indeed to a depth of infamy where the hand of resurrection can never reach him. If you can persuade the widow and orphans of the murdered Cross the gallant Watson the chivalric Ridgely and all the friends and relatives of the noble Ringgold and the other gallant spirits whose lives have been given as a bloody sacrifice to their country's honor that all this was done to glorify this administration and prove who James K. Polk was then sir is your Chief Magistrate guilty of 'conduct so basely mean in a public character that it is without precedent or pretence; an incendiary war upon society that nothing can excuse or palliate emanating from a refinement of beggarly villany made up between the venomous malignity of a serpent and the spiteful imbecility of an inferior reptile.'"<p>Isaac Edward Morse 1809-1866 was a Democratic politician from Louisiana who served in the House of Representatives from 1844-1851. He served as Louisiana's Attorney General from 1854-1856. President Franklin Pierce appointed him in 1856 to be a special commissioner to New Granada to negotiate safe passage of Americans across the Isthmus of Panama.<p>John Henry Bufford 1810-1870 was a Boston lithographer who often created his portraits after daguerreotypes. Among the artists he employed was Winslow Homer. Washington: Ritchie and Heiss, printers, 1846. paperback

This is a hardcover copy in a very nice pink dust jacket, that is not price-clipped ($5.00) that is also printed with a woodcut illustration of the fabled "Oak Alley". The book itself is in very good condition, as the light brown cloth covers are very clean and unmarked, even the tipped-on title on pink paper (the same paper as the jacket) looks as fresh as the day it was published. Inside the book there is some offsetting on the printed pink paper paste-down, some foxing to about 10 pages at the beginning and 15 pages or so at the end, otherwise very nice. The dust jacket is almost all there: the back panel is fine, the front panel and spine are present, but there is a small piece missing from the top of the spine which just extends onto the edge of the front panel, not affecting the image or text on the front cover. 10" high X 7 1/2" wide, 162 pages. Text by Natalie Scott. Introduction by N.C.Curtis. About 37 wonderful woodcut illustrations of Louisiana plantation houses by William Spratling, as well as headpiece and tailpiece decorations and other small vignettes for each of the 8 chapters. Index of old houses mentioned or illustrated in the text lists 73 properties. All in all, a beautiful copy in the rare dust jacket. This book will be securely wrapped and packed in a sturdy box and shipped with tracking.
