Description: A major study of Mexico and the Confederacy as well as the human consequences of the South defeat. Discusses emigration to French-held Mexico by Southerners 1865 - 1866, as well as relations between the CSA and Mexico under Juarez and later under Emperor Maximilian prior to 1867.

This study fills an important historical gap - well researched documentation of the pre-civil war involvement of the South with Mexico beginning in the 1840s, the intrigues of the filibusters in the 1850s and finally the desperate and largely futile attempt at Mexican settlement in the post civil war period by distinguished and ordinary southerners alike.
