Rosenbaum provides a vivid account of the protest and violent resistance of mexicano residents of the U.S. against Anglo-American encroachment and domination in Texas, New Mexico, and California from 1848 to 1916. Rosenbaum uses oral history and folk songs, a wide range of local documents, archival materials, and Spanish language newspapers, together with insights drawn from cultural anthropology, political science, and peasant studies to shed light on the motivations of groups of people who left few written records. Focusing on a too-often-ignored aspect of westward expansion, Rosenbaum's study counters the stereotype of Mexican-American fatalism and passivity. This seminal book will appeal to those interested in transitions to modernity, primordial violence, developing class consciousness, cultural conflict and accommodation. 19th century,20th century,americas,ethnic studies,history,modern (16th-21st centuries),political science,politics and social sciences,science and math,social science Ethnic Studies, Southern Methodist University Press<
