Summary

Published for the first time, Hill's diary vividly recounts the Mexican War experiences of this proud young officer. He was observant and opinionated, recording details about soldiers, officers, logistics, units, the health of the army, and the progress of the campaign. This is sure to be a valuable addition to the sources available to researchers and scholars of the U.S.-Mexican War.
