Early Diplomatic
BETWEEN
the United States anc Mexico
By WILLIAM R. MANNING,^h.D.
Adjunct Professor of Latin-American Histor in the University
of Texas
418 pages. Cloth, $2.25
This volume is based on a series of lectuis delivered at the
Johns Hopkins University in 1913 on the Alert Shaw Founda-
tion. It deals with a period in the diplomat! relations between
the United States and Mexico, which has hiierto been largely
ignored by historians, whose attention has 3r the most part
been centered on the Texas revolution, the amission of Texas
into the Union, and the war between the 'nited States and
Mexico.
The writer shows in an interesting way ha the British took
advantage of our delay in establishing a perranent representa-
tive at the Mexican capital to promote Britishnfluence over the
Mexican government, and how Poinsett's effois to recover pres-
tige for his government involved him in ifiiculties and in
charges of intermeddling in the internal affas of the country.
The suspicions thus aroused, together with 'oinsett's connec-
tion with the York Masons, thwarted his etrts to bring to a
successful conclusion the treaty negotiations ith which he was
charged. Professor Manning sho^s that in tfi misunderstand-
ings and differences that arose during the yers 1825— 1829 are
to be found the origin and explanation of he irreconcilable
differences which developed during the nex two decades and
which finally resulted in war between the bited States and
Mexico.

By WILLIAM R. MANNING, Ph.D.

418 pages. Cloth, $2.25
This volume is based on a series of lectures delivered at the
Johns Hopkins University in 1913 on the Albert Shaw Founda-
tion. It deals with a period in the diplomatic relations between
the United States and Mexico, which has hitherto been largely
ignored by historians, whose attention has for the most part
been centered on the Texas revolution, the admission of Texas
into the Union, and the war between the United States and
Mexico.
The writer shows in an interesting way how the British took
advantage of our delay in establishing a permanent representa-
tive at the Mexican capital to promote British influence over the
Mexican government, and how Poinsett's efforts to recover pres-
tige for his government involved him in difficulties and in
charges of intermeddling in the internal affairs of the country.
The suspicions thus aroused, together with Poinsett's connec-
tion with the York Masons, thwarted his efforts to bring to a
successful conclusion the treaty negotiations with which he was
charged. Professor Manning shows that in the misunderstand-
ings and differences that arose during the years 1 825-1 829 are
to be found the origin and explanation of the irreconcilable
differences which developed during the next two decades and
which finally resulted in war between the United States and
Mexico.
