Book Description:

This is a book which is long overdue and one that treats Lincoln as an international figure, not merely an American one. It examines events leading to the US invasion of Mexico, Lincoln's opposition to it in the Congress, his support of Mexico as President during and after the US Civil War, and the impact of the Mexican-American War nationally and internationally. It also includes documents from archives in the USA and Mexico.
