General Vicente Filisola's Analysis of José Urrea's Military Diary Book Description

"In this English translation of a long forgotten eyewitness account of the .Texas Revolution, Gen. Vicente Filisola, second in command of the Mexican army in Texas, analyzes and critiques the military diary of Gen. Jose Cosme Urrea, commander of one of the Mexican divisions in the 1836 campaign. Filisola's Analisis is very rare and has been underutilized as a primary source on the Texas Revolution. Certainly the fact that it has never before been translated into English has been a major factor in the lack of scrutiny of this work."--BOOK JACKET.
