Apuntes Para La Historia de la Guerra entre Mexico Y Los Estados-Unidos: Croquis del Combate del 22 y Batalla del 23 de Febrero de 1847 en la Angostura

A lithograph of a topographical map of the battle of Angostura (Buena Vista) on February 22-23, 1847 from a Mexican perspective. Listed on the map are the locations of Mexican troops (infantry, cavalry, and battery) under Pacheco, Lombini, Ortega, Mejia, and Micheltorena. Also listed are the locations of the American troops (los enemigos). This sketch provides an idea of the elevations of the landscape with hatchmarked lines to denote where the hills become steeper. [This lithograph map is from the book "Apuntes Para La Historia de la Guerra entre Mexico Y Los Estados-Unidos" edited by Los Redactores and illustrated by Plácido Blanco, between pages 100 and 101]
